Mendelssohn Chorus of Philadelphia is thrilled to open our 2024-2025 season with an extraordinary musical journey that celebrates the beauty and fragility of life.Our season will begin with the hauntingly beautiful Missa dolorosa in E minor by Antonio Caldara, a Baroque composer known for his expressive and emotionally charged work. The piece's solemn tone and introspective melodies will set the stage for the main event of the evening.
We then fast-forward to the present day with the Philadelphia-premiere of Sarah Kirkland Snider's "Mass for the Endangered," a contemporary masterpiece that combines the traditional structure of a mass, original poetry of Nathaniel Bellows, and a powerful message about the importance of protecting our planet's biodiversity.
Join Mendelssohn Chorus of Philadelphia as we unite in a moving tribute to the beauty and resilience of life in all its forms. Featuring The Chamber Orchestra of Philadelphia and jointly conducted by Artistic Director Dominick DiOrio and Associate Artistic Director Heather Mitchell.
