The Vancouver Chamber Choir’s 40th anniversary season opens with a concert of music from some of the greatest choral masters of all time. From Palestrina, the greatest Italian Renaissance composer of sacred music, one of his most famous pieces - the Mass for Pope Marcellus. We mark the centennial of 20th century American great Samuel Barber with his signature choral work Reincarnations. Then conductor John William Trotter and the Choir are joined by pianist Terence Dawson for Béla Bartók’s poignant Slovak Folk Songs and a set of vivacious Gypsy Songs by Johannes Brahms.

Giovanni P. da Palestrina - Missa Papae Marcelli.
Samuel Barber - Reincarnations.
Béla Bartók - Four Slovak Folk Songs.
