Last season’s highlights:

War Requiem chosen by Jeremy Eichler of the Boston Globe as one of the top ten classical music events of 2012 (Best Performance by a Volunteer Ensemble)

Benjamin Britten: War Requiem

Saturday, March 3rd, 8:00 pm
Cathedral of the Holy Cross, Boston

This masterpiece for orchestra, choruses, and soloists is an eloquent meditation on the sacrifices of war and the universal longing for peace, set to music of searing power and transcendent beauty.

Collaborating in the performance were Chorus pro Musica, the Providence Singers, and the Boston Children’s Chorus, with soloists Sarah Pelletier, Frank Kelley, and Sumner Thompson. Cathedral of the Holy Cross provided a magnificent space for this magnificent music.
