Choral Masterwork: Beethoven’s 9th
“O friends, not these tones! Rather let us tune our voices more pleasantly and more joyously.” Our final and jubilant program of the year, Choral Masterwork, is a collaboration among the orchestra, invited vocal soloists, and Colby Choirs to present Ludwig van Beethoven’s Symphony No. 9, an epic ode to community and the joy of life. In addition, the concert will celebrate the student winner of the annual Music Department Concerto Competition and will include the overture to Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s beloved opera buffa, Le Nozze de Figaro. With its celebratory overtone as well as vibrant combination of ensembles, this concert is part of this year’s Center for the Arts and Humanities theme - Play!
Admission is free, but reservations are strongly recommended.
