Get In On This Action ~ Your Voice Should Be Heard Too
We're now recruiting experienced choral singers for
Handel's Theodora: April 15 & 21, 2012.
"I want them leaving rehearsals feeling they were approached by something they don't have in their daily lives, something beautiful and special."
-- Eugene Sirotkine
Hailed
by the New York Times as one of Westchester's "most ambitious"
choruses, the Hudson Valley Singers sold out our recent performance of Handel's Susanna.
In the spring of 2008 we performed Robert Schumann's incomparable Das Paradies und die Peri. (Professionally produced DVDs available here!)
We performed both arrangements of Rossini's Petite Messe Solennelle in April 07. Originally scored for piano and harmonium, Rossini also orchestrated it a few years later. The orchestral arrangement is very rarely performed and we're not aware of any other group that has ever sequentially performed both versions.
Summer 2007 Concert Tour in Budapest
We also performed Mozart’s Mass in C Minor this summer at two of Budapest’s most magnificent venues: the 700 year-old Mátyás-templom and The Franz Liszt Academy of Music. Joining us in the “Grand Mass” will be a semi-professional local chorus and specifically auditioned soloists and orchestra.
We are currently looking for committed singers to join us for Handel's Theodora on April 15 & 21, 2012. Rehearsals have already begun.
Formal auditions are not required, but singers are expected
to prepare on their own between rehearsals. We
welcome experienced singers in all voice parts. Voice
part CDs are available.
We
rehearse on Wednesday evenings at 7:30pm in the wonderfully acoustical auditorium at Andrus on Hudson in Hastings (185 Old Broadway; map & directions). All interested singers are welcome in all voice parts. High school and college students,
too.
