About this event

Join Courtney's Stars of Tomorrow for a vibrant performance of Antonio Vivaldi's Gloria in D major RV 589 and Timothy Amukele's Christmas cantata What Sweeter Music, featuring The Concert Chorale, Cecilia Tucker, Shawna J. Williams, and Betty Entzminger.

The Concert Chorale moves smoothly between styles, and this program is no exception as they tackle Antonio Vivaldi’s Gloria and Timothy Amukele’s What Sweeter Music. The story of the birth of Christ is a familiar one. Vivaldi’s (second edition) contemplates the significance of God’s incarnation in the figure of his son through the grandeur, dynamism, and richness of the classic baroque style. Fast forward a couple of hundred years, and Amukele fuses various styles to breathe new life into the Christmas story through a mix of new music and traditional carols. His multi-movement cantata features historical biblical characters we know and love, including Mary, Joseph, Herod, Simeon, and Elizabeth.
