BVC’s holiday concert features distinguished American composer Daniel Pinkham’s Christmas Cantata (Sinfonia Sacra). A 20th century homage to the Baroque, this work recalls the brilliance of the Venetian school of chorus-and-brass music, particularly as embodied in the works of Giovanni Gabrieli. The Cantata is cast in the form of three contrasting short movements and is scored for chorus and double brass choir.
The program features a mix of other seasonal selections, including a carol sing-along.
The BVC has a rich history of featuring wonderful local musicians to accompany our concerts. From fantastic brass players to inspiring wind ensembles, our most common guest instrumentalists are our glorious string sections!
As a fundraiser, we are inviting our patrons to participate in our first Sponsor-A-String String Quartet Instrument Fundraiser. Choose an individual string instrument (violin, viola, cello, or double bass) to sponsor. You also have the opportunity to become a Platinum String Sponsor by choosing all four instruments (string quartet).
String Sponsors will share the same benefits as our Musician’s Circle or Composer’s Circle sponsors, but will be acknowledged separately.
