CONCORA Sings
Extraordinary Masterworks

Continuing a long tradition of inclusion and outreach, CONCORA will be joined by several extraordinarily gifted Connecticut high school choirs to present a program of favorite movements from choral masterworks large and small, including three movements from the Mozart Requiem.

For many of the young singers, this concert will be their first opportunity to collaborate with professional musicians, and may be their first experience with this enduring repertoire and with singing in an acoustically resplendent space like St Thomas the Apostle Church.

The concert itself is inspiring and enriching for listeners, too, as a member of the audience said of last year’s Extraordinary Concert: “What a treat to sit and be bathed in glorious sound. The young voices were so fresh and clear and the ensemble sound quite breathtaking. The variety of musical offerings was a delight to the listener and perfectly suited to that grand space.”

Artistic Director Chris Shepard says: "One of the greatest joys of working with young singers is the opportunity to introduce them to new works for the first time. It reminds me of why certain works are 'masterworks' in the first place—their appeal is nearly universal, often from the very first contact."
