The Nova Singers will join the Florida Singing Sons for a concert series celebrating the 50th anniversary of both choral groups.The two groups will join to perform John Rutter's Mass of the Children, a deeply personal work the composer wrote after the tragic death of his 19-year-old son in an accident. Using the structure of the Catholic Mass, the harmonic work follows the course of a day, from waking to sleeping.
Each group will also perform selections from their 50th anniversary repertoire, from Broadway to spirituals to contemporary anthems.
