Hudson Valley Singers 60th Anniversary Concert: A Cappella!

Via , Publicist for Hudson Valley Singers:

Ward off the winter doldrums with wonderful music by the Hudson Valley Singers as they celebrate their 60th Anniversary. In a break from their traditional concerts accompanied by a full orchestra, it's all a cappella all year. Dubbed Westchester's "most ambitious" chorus by The New York Times, you are sure to enjoy A Cappella!, a retrospective of music from the 16th Century to the 20th—some sacred and some secular—by Mozart, Bach, Debussy, Victoria, Rameau, Poulenc, and Verdi. Former Metropolitan Opera Assistant Conductor and Chorus Master Eugene Sirotkine will direct the 50-minute program, sharing brief but enlightening insights into the development of a cappella singing from the middle ages through the present. The Masters School Middle School Chorus, directed by Jennifer Carnavale will add bright young voices to the mix. If you can't make it on January 9, see the website for encore performances in Manhattan and New Jersey later in the month. And don't miss Russian A Cappella! coming to the tri-state area this spring.
