The Canisius College Chorale, under the direction of Frank Scinta, will continue its 2013 Sacred Spaces concert series with a program on Sunday, November 17th at 5:00 p.m. in Corpus Christi Church, 199 Clark Street in Buffalo.
The concert follows recent successful performances in St. Louis Church, Buffalo and St. Benedict Church, Eggertsville.
Sunday’s program will feature works by Hogan,Vivaldi, Dawson, Ticheli and others. Admission is free and all are welcome.
Sacred Spaces stems from an idea the choir proposed nine 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. As a result, the choir has visited nearly forty houses of worship with its repertoire of sacred and secular music spanning five centuries.
The remainder of the Chorale’s Sacred Spaces Fall Series is as follows:
Sunday, November 17 at 5:00 p.m.
Corpus Christi Church, 199 Clark Street, Buffalo,NY
Monday, November 25at 7:30 p.m.
Annunciation Church, 7580 Clinton Street, Elma,NY
Friday, December 6 at 7:30 p.m.
Montante Center, Canisius College, 2001 Main Street, Buffalo, NY
Sunday, December 8 at 7:00 p.m.
Church of St. Anthony, 160 Court Street, Buffalo, NY (with Camerata di San Antonio – tickets required)
Please join us for one or more of these great choral events!
