Coro Allegro Presents In the Clearing

In the Clearing invites you to enter a sonic space and revel in the beauty and wonder in this world, drown out the noise, and reflect on what truly matters. In the Clearing presents two very different but complementary works. The first is In the Clearing, Grammy-winning and internationally performed Kenneth Fuchs’ exquisite a cappella setting of Robert Frost’s poetry. In the Clearing was the first work Coro Allegro commissioned back in 1995. Fuchs, who studied with some of the greatest names in 20th-century music, Milton Babbitt, David Del Tredici, and Vincent Persichetti, to name a few, teaches composition at the University of Connecticut. Mr. Fuchs is also this year’s recipient of Coro Allegro’s Pinkham Award, which is given annually in recognition of outstanding contributors to classical choral music and the LGBTQ+ communities.
The concert continues with Mozart’s glorious Vesperae solennes de confessore, K. 339, which features the exquisite Laudate Dominum. We’re thrilled to feature soloists Dana Varga, soprano, Clare McNamara, Mezzo-Soprano, Jonas Budris, Tenor, and Ron Williams, Baritone.
Free/affordable parking and excellent T access.
There will be a free reception following the concert. Tickets are $25-65, with a 20% discount for students and seniors.
