Dr. Susan Rice and the Heinz Chapel Choir invite all faculty, staff, and students to the free Campus Holiday Concert at Heinz Chapel. This is the final dress rehearsal for the annual holiday concerts that begin on November 29. This year’s Heinz Chapel Choir Holiday Concert is titled …called by love and angels. The ensemble will sing music in seven languages by composers including Josquin, Mendelssohn, Vaughan Williams, Ippolitov-Ivanov, and Alfred Burt.
The Heinz Chapel Choir will explore the theme of "Departures" through music selections that deal directly with physical and emotional leave-taking, as well as through repertoire that departs from our typical expectations, drawing from the Southern Harmony, ekphrastic, and oral traditions.
Heinz Chapel Choir will host three high school chamber choirs from the region in its annual Chamber Choir Festival: the Fox Chapel Madrigal Singers from Fox Chapel Area High School (Ben Murray, director), Peters Township Symphonic Choir from Peters Township High School (Ryan Perrotte, director), and the Seneca Valley Madrigal Singers from Seneca Valley Senior High School (Aaron Magill, director). Each guest choir will perform several a capella works ranging in style from Renaissance motets, to English madrigals, to jazz, including a signature work in a style of their choice.
