We simply can't wait for "Never One Thing," curated by Associate Artistic Director Heather Mitchell, on February 22nd at 4pm at the Philadelphia Episcopal Cathedral! Here is what some of our singers are saying about this program:
"One of the most beautiful things about music is that it can express the inexpressible. The music we’re singing in this performance is full of hope and promise, expressed in a variety of styles and genres that will touch many hearts"
"What a FUN repertoire. I'm so excited to sing these pieces (and sing them well) alongside my Mendelssohnians."
"The range of styles that the programming captures - there are grand moments to be shared with an audience both in the soft and loud alike."
"Unlike our other concerts which often have BIG works/heavy works, this concert is a collection of shorter and sometimes more modern works, but in their short duration they express so much and are musically so involved."
Check out this sneak peek of May Erlewine's "Never One Thing" led by Assistant Conductor Ariel Alvarado.
