VOICES FROM THE HEART: AN EVENING OF ANDREW LLOYD WEBBER
Saturday, April 4th, 2020, 7:30pm, First Baptist Church of Glendale
&
Sunday, April 5th, 2020, 5:00pm, Northridge United Methodist Church
​

VOICES FROM THE HEART: AN EVENING OF ANDREW LLOYD WEBBER, is a celebration of the famed British composer, and his ability to help us all feel the heartfelt emotions of life and love. His very personal setting of the Requiem was written following the death of his father, William Lloyd Webber in 1982.   Holding these feelings in his mind and heart, he soon came upon an article in the New York Times depicting some of the terrible tragedies of war in Cambodia, and particularly one story involving a brother and sister.  These emotions and experiences became the genesis and framework for the Requiem. Webber describes this work as “the most personal of all [his] compositions.”  Don’t miss the opportunity to hear this complex and beautiful Grammy Award-winning piece. Of course, a celebration of Webber would not be complete without performing some of the most beloved musical theatre selections of our time! The Chorale will lend their voices to the iconic Broadway hits from Cats, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, Phantom of the Opera, and more. Audiences are sure to be transported by the music of this night!

ICONIC VOICES
Saturday, June 13th, 2020, 7:30pm, First Baptist Church of Glendale


ICONIC VOICES:  MOZART IN THE 21ST CENTURY will feature one of the most famous choral pieces ever written, Mozart's Requiem.  This quintessential work continues to inspire audiences and bring them hope with it’s mixture of beauty, passion, pain, healing, turmoil, and ultimate peace and rest.  This work will be paired with his Sparrow Mass, written 15 years earlier when Mozart was just twenty years old.  Delightful in its playful beauty and imitation of sparrows, these two pieces will celebrate the iconic voice of Amadeus Wolfgang Mozart, and his continuing ability to delight, challenge, and speak to audiences in the 21st century.  Both works (and more!) will showcase the masterful voices of the Chorale, under the artful conducting of Maestro, John Sutton. You will not want to miss this season ending concert as we celebrate 45 years of the Angeles Chorale lifting their VOICES, and 10 years of Maestro Sutton leading them in bringing great choral music to the minds and hearts of our audiences.

​VOICES FOR PEACE
​Saturday, December 14th, 2019, 7:30pm, First United Methodist Church of Pasadena

The voices of the Angeles Chorale will become VOICES FOR PEACE as we present our first concert of the  45thAnniversary Season:  VOICES!  In a world, and at a time, where there are conflicts around the world        and within our own nation, the Chorale will bring to life the hauntingly poignant sounds of Vaughan                Williams’ Dona Nobis Pacem. Literally “grant us peace,” Dona Nobis Pacem was created using three poems of Walt Whitman, prophetic texts from the Bible, and a portion of text from a political speech brought in England’s House of Commons.  Written in 1936, this iconic work is Williams' impassioned plea for peace as he warns against (what would become World War II) the world’s move towards healing conflict with violence and hostility.  His words continue to ring true and continue to be needed. Performed in six thrilling movements, this work will fill you with hope, joy, and a wish for peace on earth. In addition, the program will feature a mix of your favorite holiday carols!

TANGO & FIRE:  PASSIONATE SOUNDS OF ARGENTINA
​Saturday, June 8th, 7:30 P.M. First Baptist Church of Glendale
The sizzling sounds of Argentina came to life with our final concert of the season, Tango and Fire: Passionate Sounds of Argentina. We headed South to the land known for its gauchos, mate, Patagonia, Malbec wine, and of course, the “Paris of the South – Buenos Aires!”  The WEST COAST PREMIERE of  the beautiful and extraordinary Misa A Buenos Aires (Misa Tango) by Argentine composer Martin Palermi as a hit! Also included was an authentic “tango band,” delighting in the rhythms and sounds of the “tango.” You’ll felt like you’re walking the streets of Palermo, or maybe Recoleta, as the Angeles Chorale discovered and celebrated the classical, folk, and traditional sounds of Argentina!

​​SONGS OF FRANCE
​Saturday, March 30th, 7:30 P.M. at the First United Methodist Church of Pasadena
Sunday, March 31st, 4 P.M.at the Northridge United Methodist Church
​In March, we traveled to the city of love and lights…Paris!  Home to the Eiffel Tower, Notre-Dame, and the Louvre, we celebrated the sounds of this iconic city and its nightlife with some of France’s most celebrated composers. Duruflé’s magnificent motets paved the way for our inspiring performance of the Poulenc Gloria, and Morten Lauridsen’s evocative song cycle “Les Chansons des Roses” (Songs of Roses), as the Angeles Chorale brough to life the beauty, subtlety, and romance that French music is famous for.

​CHRISTMAS IN ITALY
Saturday, December 8, 7:30 P.M.
First United Methodist Church of Pasadena
Our season began with a journey to the home of opera, fashion, wine, pizza(!), and the Stradivarius violin, as we explored Italy and the home of Puccini, Palestrina, Verdi, and so many others.  We walked the streets of Florence, Naples, Rome & Milan as we celebrated the holiday season with the joyous sounds of Vivaldis majestic Gloria.  This Baroque masterpiece was a contemporary contrast with John Rutters thrilling Gloria, as the sounds of the season filled the air and your heart. We rang in the holidays with Italian carols, an audience sing-a-long, and some of our audiences most beloved holiday favorites. We found new hope, life, love, and cheer for the holidays!

The Angeles Chorale's mission is to engage, enrich and inspire our audiences, singers, and our diverse community by performing great choral music with a passionate commitment to excellence, and to increase access to and appreciation of choral music in greater Los Angeles.
