Chora Nova, a fifty-voice chorus based in Berkeley, will perform a program of choral works by George Frideric Handel and Johann Nepomuk Hummel at 7:00 pm Saturday night, November 17 at First Presbyterian Church of Berkeley, under the baton of Artistic Director Paul Flight.

Soloists will include Jennifer Paulino and Christina Santschi, sopranos; Danielle Reutter-Harrah, alto; Mark Bonney, tenor; and Paul Murray, bass.  A full orchestra will accompany the soloists and chorus.

Johann Nepomuk Hummel's Mass in D minor (1805) is scored for a rich orchestra of strings, horns, winds and percussion.
George Frideric Handel composed this Te Deum in 1714, on the occasion of King George I’s arrival in England from Hanover.
