MARCH 9-10, 2024: A TIME FOR PEACE

with Orchestra Gloria

In celebration of the Treaty of Utrecht and a call for peace in our time, this concert features the Utrecht Te Deum of George Frederic Handel and Bach’s uplifting Lobet den Herrn. Featuring soloists Rita Lilly, Katherine Nägele-Lin, Alexander Frank, Sepp Hammer.

MAY 25-26, 2024: LORD NELSON MASS

Haydn’s Lord Nelson Mass is considered to be his greatest work — a pillar of choral music — composed originally in troubled times, but harmoniously coinciding with the victory of Lord Nelson over Napoleon. A fitting send-off for Artistic Director, Allen Simon as he conducts his final concert with Soli Deo Gloria. Featuring soloists Victoria Fraser, Shauna Fallihee, Elias Berezin, Jim Monios.
