Experience the beauty of sacred music in a sacred space, the sanctuary of historic First United Methodist Church. The program includes Adolphus Hailstork’s I Will Lift Up Mine Eyes, a suite of three psalm settings, and excerpts from Felix Mendelssohn’s oratorio Elijah, featuring tenor Christopher Moore.
The concert also includes
- “Amazing Grace!” (arr. Mack Wilberg)
- “Salvation is Created” (Pavel Chesnokov)
- “My God is a Rock” and “Hark, I Hear the Harps Eternal” (arranged by Robert Shaw and Alice Parker)
- “If Ye Love Me” (Thomas Tallis) and
- “Total Praise” (Richard Smallwood, arr. Patrick Barrett and Doreen Rao).
Artistic director Peter Steenblik and treble ensemble director Isabelle Peterson will conduct our 100-voice chorus, along with organist Hyunjoo Kim, pianist Isabelle Areola, and members of McGuire’s Irish Pub Pipe Band.
