The Dubuque Chorale closes its 40th Anniversary season by welcoming back founding director Dennis Williams and past director Fran Vogt. Along with current director Bob Demaree, the three will lead the Chorale and orchestra in a retrospective of music the Chorale has performed during its 40-year history.
The program includes individual pieces from great works such as Bach's Mass in B Minor, Vivaldi's Gloria, Haydn's Creation, Brahms' Requiem, Faure's Requiem, Bernstein's Chichester Psalms, and Orff's Carmina Burana. Other composers highlighted include Mozart, Mendelssohn, Claussen, Rutter, Handel, and Lauridsen.
Following the concert, a gala reception will be held with desserts and light refreshments, and commemorating the Chorale's past and future with memorabilia tables, a video presentation, and a look at our strategic plan for the future.
Please join the Dubuque Chorale in celebrating 40 years of music-making!
