Chorus pro Musica presents Summer Sings!

The program on August 11th will be conducted by CpM's Music Director, Jamie Kirsch.&nbsp; Jamie is the sixth Music Director of Chorus pro Musica. He is also Director of Choral Activities at Tufts University, where he conducts the Tufts Concert Choir, Chamber Singers, and teaches music theory and conducting. Join us for one of the most thrilling works in the choral repertoire. Verdi's Requiem isn't just a sacred work—it's an operatic drama that takes singers on an unforgettable journey from tender prayer to thunderous judgment. Your evening will focus on selections from this masterwork. This is choral singing at its most visceral and rewarding, with dramatic intensity and stunning melodic lines that showcase both intimate solo moments and massive ensemble passages.

The program on August 4th will be conducted by Benjamin Perry. Ben is a Boston-based choral conductor, tenor, educator, and yoga instructor. He is the Artistic Director of Nightingale and directs choirs at St. John Lutheran Church and Cristo Rey Boston High School. Ben holds degrees in Choral Conducting from The Boston Conservatory at Berklee and in Vocal Performance. He has worked with The Boston Cecilia and the Harvard Glee Club,&nbsp;was a finalist for the 2024 American Prize in Choral Conducting, and teaches yoga at Down Under School of Yoga. Ben’s Program for the August 4th Summer Sings! O Makalapua - Alexander A beautiful Hawaiian song celebrating the makalapua flower, bringing tropical blooms and island harmonies to your garden journey. The Passing of the Year (III. answer July, and V. Ah Sunflower) - Dove Two movements capturing summer's peak and the iconic sunflower, reflecting on time's passage through nature's seasonal rhythms. Nature Songs (mvt 1. Napadly Pisne) - Dvorak The opening movement of Dvorak's beloved nature cycle, where Czech melodies bloom with the fresh inspiration of folk song traditions. El Grillo - Joaquin Desprez A delightful Renaissance madrigal about the cricket's song, bringing the garden's musical creatures to life with playful vocal exchanges. Go, Lovely Rose - Whitacre Whitacre's lush, contemporary harmonies give new life to this classic poem about a rose as messenger of love and beauty.
