The Canisius College Chorale, under the direction of Frank Scinta, continues its 2010 Sacred Spaces concert series with a program in Our Lady of Czestochowa Church on Monday, May 3 at 7:30 p.m. Our Lady of Czestochowa Church is located at 64 Center Avenue in North Tonawanda.
The concert features works by Mendelssohn, Hogan, Bernstein, Hovland, Dawson and others. Admission to all events in the Sacred Spaces series is free. Please join us for an evening of great choral music for all ages and tastes.
Sacred Spaces stems from an idea the choir proposed five years ago to feature its music in some of Western New York’s most beautiful and acoustically resonant environments – namely, the sanctuaries of our area’s churches. The choir has performed a repertoire of sacred and secular music which spans five centuries in approximately 35 houses of worship.
Now in its 12th season, the Canisius College Chorale remains one of Western New York’s most active collegiate music ensembles. Composed of one hundred undergraduate and graduate members, the Chorale regularly presents concert programs to school, church, and community audiences throughout Western New York and Southern Ontario. The chorale releases its fourth CD recording in June 2010.
