Ring in the holidays with the Fairfield County Chorale. The joyful and festive program features Handel’s Dixit Dominus and Vivaldi’s Gloria, as well as Baroque favorites by Handel and Bach. Then, in what has fast become a popular FCC tradition, the audience is invited to sing along with the Chorale to a selection of carols and other holiday favorites.
“The orchestra, with its timpani and trumpets, our 100-plus voices, and five talented young soloists gives full expression to this celebratory and exuberant music,” said Music Director, David Rosenmeyer.
Soloists to be featured are sopranos Carla Cottini and Anna Lenti, mezzo soprano Kate Maroney, tenor Stephen Beigner, and baritone Joshua South. The full program features George Frideric Handel’s youthful and orchestral Dixit Dominus along with his dramatic coronation anthem, Zadok the Priest; Antonio Vivaldi’s celebratory masterpiece Gloria; J.S. Bach’s Jauchzet Frohlocket (from his “Christmas Oratorio”) plus a selection of holiday songs.
