Opus 7 Vocal Ensemble performs "From Heaven on High"
Brighten up your December nights with Opus 7's Holiday concert From Heaven on High, featuring the festive sounds of choir, soloists and orchestra. We continue our year-long celebration of Mendelssohn's bicentennial by performing two of his early compositions: his radiant cantata "Vom Himmel hoch" and his brilliant "Magnificat". Both works exhibit youthful energy and enthusiasm with their sparkling orchestral writing and bravura displays for choir and soloists. Also on the concert is Canticum Mariae Virginis by the Finnish composer Einojuhani Rautavaara, which captures the divine mystery of the Nativity as a movement from darkness to a glorious blaze of light. Finally, Georg Schumann's setting of Vom Himmel hoch paints a vivid picture of the heavenly reaction to the earthly birth on Christmas night.
Come experience the joyful sounds of Opus 7 in the beautiful acoustic of St. James Cathedral on December 6!
