Two formidable contrasting works are paired for this year’s Alice Millar Chapel birthday celebration. The Grand Concerto for organ and orchestra by Stephen Paulus combines the mighty 100-rank Aeolian Skinner pipe organ with a full palette of colorful instrumental timbres. Haydn’s “Lord Nelson” Mass in D Minor offers sublime vocal lines and dramatic orchestral climaxes. Choral works by Eric Whitacre and Mischa Zupko round out this eclectic program.
This program is free and open to the public.
