The GMChorale's Alchemy Chamber Ensemble Presents “Soirées Musicales”
Time: 4:00-5:30 pm
Alchemy, the vocal chamber ensemble of the GMChorale, will offer “Soirées Musicales,” a concert that showcases the versatility of this ensemble in performances of accompanied and a capella choral music, and recalls the elegance of musical gatherings in earlier days. The featured work on these programs is the Neue Liebeslieder waltzes by Johannes Brahms, virtuosic settings of love poems for solo voices, chorus, and piano four hands (that is, two pianists playing one piano). The GMChorale’s long-time pianist Allan Conway will be joined at the keyboard by Artistic Director Joseph D’Eugenio, and members of Alchemy will perform the vocal solos. The program also includes choral music by Giacchino Rossini, Randall Thompson, Edward Elgar, and others. The program is 90 minutes, with no intermission.

Fairfield County Chorale
BEETHOVEN’S MASS IN C MAJOR AND PIANO CONCERTO IN E-FLAT MAJOR
Celebrate Beethoven’s 250th birthday on the cusp of spring with the Fairfield County Chorale when we present two signature works from his “heroic” period: the majestic and rarely-performed Mass in C major and the revolutionary Piano Concerto No. 5 in E-flat major, the “Emperor” Concerto. The vocal soloists, rising stars in opera and oratorio, will be Jennifer Jaroslavsky, soprano; Naama Liany, mezzo soprano; Pavel (Pasha) Sulyandziga, tenor; Brian Mextorf, baritone. The piano concerto will be performed by the mesmerizing Russian pianist, and special friend of the FCC, Ilya Yakushev.
Both works come from his “heroic” period, which began in 1802, when he had made an unhappy peace with his worsening and likely permanent deafness. No longer able to perform, he dedicated himself to composing, and many of the works from that time reflect themes of human struggle, affirmation, and celebration. The Mass in C major, composed in 1807, and the Piano Concerto in E-flat major, composed in 1810, manifest emotional extremes from defiance to hope.
This is the Fairfield County Chorale’s 57th season of presenting great choral works in southwestern Connecticut.
