The PUTNAM CHORALE invites the community on a powerful musical journey. Its newest choral concert offering, "From Darkness to Dawn" pairs Mozart's Requiem, one of the most moving and dramatic works ever written, with the contemporary work, the Sunrise Mass by composer Ola Gjeilo. The 80+ person Chorale will be accompanied by a 20-piece professional orchestra and professional soloists: @Adelmo Guidarelli, @Maya Seypert, @Victoria McGrath and @John Burke.
Mozart’s Requiem, left unfinished at the time of his death in 1791, features the thunderous intensity of the “Dies Irae” movement, and the aching beauty of the “Lacrimosa.” The Requiem confronts themes of mortality, judgment, and mercy with extraordinary emotional depth. Its sweeping choruses, intimate solo moments, and urgent orchestral writing have captivated audiences for more than two centuries.
In striking contrast, Gjeilo’s Sunrise Mass offers a contemporary meditation on light, renewal, and transcendence. Lush harmonies, expansive melodies, and shimmering orchestral textures characterize this modern setting of the Mass Ordinary.
