We have an exciting program for our Spring concert!

SBCC celebrates the ecstatic music of Gloria! Starting with the uplifting and exciting Gloria of Rutter then the contemplative and beautiful Rachmaninov selections from the All Night Vigil, including his magical setting for the Gloria, and then finishing with the iconic Vivaldi Gloria with strings, oboe, and trumpet. An evening of wonderful, joyful music!

The Program:

John Rutter – Gloria
John Rutter’s Gloria brings the ancient text into a modern sound world, bursting with energy, color, and heartfelt lyricism. From its thrilling opening to its peaceful middle movement and exuberant finale, the piece offers singers and audiences alike an uplifting and joyful musical experience.

Rachmaninoff – Selections from All-Night Vigil
Rachmaninoff’s All-Night Vigil is a masterpiece of Russian choral music, known for its rich harmonies, deep spiritual beauty, and stunning vocal writing. Our selected movements showcase the work’s profound emotional depth.

Antonio Vivaldi – Gloria in D major
Vivaldi’s Gloria is a sparkling celebration of joy and praise, filled with memorable melodies and lively rhythms. Written in early 18th-century Venice, it moves effortlessly between moments of grandeur and intimacy and remains one of the most loved and frequently performed choral works of the Baroque era.
