Holiday Concerts a Success; Upcoming Performances

The Chorale was busy in late December with three performances. We began on December 20 with our annual holiday concert--an SRO sellout featuring the Mozart Coronation Mass, Handel's Zadok the Priest and seasonal favorites. The next day we joined the New Valley Symphony at the Hall of Liberty in Burbank, serving as the chorus for its holiday concert. We reprised the Coronation Mass, adding a crowd-pleasing Hallelujah Chorus and Christmas carols for a very enjoyable afternoon.

Our next performance is on February 8 at 2:00, when we rejoin the New Valley Symphony at the Hall of Liberty. We will be singing popular Opera pieces, including Verdi favorites--the Brindisi from La Traviata and the Chorus of the Hebrew Slaves from Nabucco. The concert is free, so fans in the area, come see us and the NVS for a musical Sunday afternoon.

And save the date: our Spring concert will be on May 9. More info to follow.
