Coro Allegro, David Hodgkins, Artistic Director, lauches our 25th season as Boston’s acclaimed classical chorus for members, friends, and allies of the LGBT community with “Magnificat,” Sunday, November 13, 2016 at 3:00pm, Sanders Theatre, Cambridge.
Please join us as our season of celebrations begin! Bach choral settings, joyously radiant, intimate, and grand, bookend deeply cathartic works by Barber and Gluck and a set of Kodály folk songs and anthems to mark the 60th anniversary of the Hungarian Uprising of 1956.
As part of this season’s retrospective on our 25 year history, we shine a spotlight on many of the fine musicians who have partnered with us. This concert features Kristina Nilsson, in gratitude for all the exemplary musicians she has assembled and led as Concertmaster of Coro Allegro’s Orchestra, as well as some of the finest and most expressive Baroque soloists in the Boston area.
