Dear Friends of Harmonium and Choral Music,
This Saturday, May 6 the Colonial Symphony will be joined by the
80 voices of Harmonium Choral Society for an exciting program at the
Community Theatre in Morristown. The mighty Mozart Requiem will be
performed in the new completion by Robert Levin.
Mozart died before finishing this great Requiem – and even in the
familiar version completed by one of his students, it is moving. Now
hear it completed by musicologist Robert Levin, who went back to
Mozart's notes to create a finished version that is truly
magnificent.
This will be a concert full of riches: The fabulous Colonial
Symphony led by Music Director Paul Hostetter plus the superb
Harmonium Choral Society, led by Artistic Director Anne Matlack, and
four outstanding soloists for the Requiem – soprano Elizabeth Farnum,
mezzo soprano Hai-Ting Chinn, tenor Stephen Oosting, and bass Matt
Boehler. And in addition, the program opens with Mahler's Ruckert
Lieder – a series of five beloved songs -- sung by baritone Bruce
Rameker.
Don't miss it! The concert begins at 8 p.m., but you will enjoy
the pre-concert talk at 7 P.M., "Music As Therapy," led by Maestro
Hostetter with music therapist Joke Bradt. Call the Box Office,
973-539-8008, for tickets. ($45, $35,$25, HS and College students
$5, K-8 free with paid adult).
