March Concert Success!
Westchester Choral Society, in collaboration with Greenwich Choral Society, presented “Beethoven’s Unheard Triumph” at Manhattanville University March 8th. This sold-out concert featured Beethoven’s “Egmont Overture”, his Mass in C major, and Runestad’s “A Silence Haunts Me” - an audience favorite for its dramatic depiction of Beethoven’s descent into deafness. The collaboration was a tremendous success and will surely lead to more in the future. The orchestra’s virtuoso performance was appreciated by chorus and audience alike.
WCS Spring ‘24 Concert
The Westchester Choral Society gave their Spring ‘24 concert at Rye Presbyterian Church on a beautiful sunny spring day. The program was a great success with the audience enjoy the combination of an older piece (Fauré Requiem), a mid-century piece (Vaughan Williams Mystical Songs), and a new 21st century piece Illuminare (Elaine Hagenberg) that had the audience standing as the last note ended. Wild hoops of appreciation accompanied the applause - and the performers basked in the tribute. The entire program came alive with the addition of an extremely talented group of musicians forming the orchestra. With 60 plus singers we have completely come back from the near extinction of our group after COVID. We are happy to still be here singing for you!
