This season, New World Chorale is celebrating its 25th anniversary!

In this concert, we are excited to present the premiere of a work, commissioned for the occasion, by composer—and former chorus member—John Cavallaro. We will also perform works by Barber, Brahms, Bruckner, Haydn, and Mascagni. The finale is a performance of Beethoven’s Fantasia in C minor (popularly known as “Choral Fantasy”) featuring NWC’s stellar accompanist, Mark Bartlett, as piano soloist. The full program is listed below.

Following the concert, attendees are invited to a celebratory reception.

We hope you will join us for this special event!
