About the Concert
Our 45th anniversary season kicks off with a performance of one of
Rossini's greatest choral works which, despite the title, is neither
small nor solemn, ranging from hushed intensity to boisterous high
spirits, with the rhythmic vitality for which Rossini was famous.
Originally scored for accompaniment by two pianos and a harmonium, we
will be performing it with accordion. A rare treat!
With Michèle Bogdanowicz (soprano), Marion Newman
(mezzo-soprano), Michel Schrey (tenor), Luc Lalonde (bass), Jean
Desmarais (piano) and Alexander Sevastian (accordion).
