Yale Camerata 40th Anniversary: Homecoming Alumni Concert
Join us on Sunday, October 12 at 4 p.m. for a very special alumni concert to begin a year of events and performances celebrating the 40th anniversary of Yale Camerata, the ISM’s seventy-five-voice vocal ensemble whose members are Yale students, faculty, staff, and experienced singers from the New Haven community. Along with the Yale Camerata, the concert will feature an alumni chorus. The concert will be led by all three of Camerata’s conductors—founder Maggie Brooks, Andre Thomas, and current director, Felicia Barber. Yale Camerata, Camerata Alumni Chorus and invited guests will present a musical celebration spanning four decades of glorious sacred choral literature.
For those interested in participating in the event, please check back for more details.
Yale Camerata is a seventy-five-voice vocal ensemble whose members are Yale graduate and undergraduate students, faculty, staff, and experienced singers from the New Haven community. Conducted by Dr. Felicia Barber, the ensemble performs a widely varied spectrum of sacred choral literature, with a special commitment to choral music of our time. The Camerata was founded by Marguerite L. Brooks in 1985.
This concert will be free and open to the public, and will also be livestreamed.
The music will feature highlights from Mendelssohn’s Elijah, Bernstein’s Chichester Psalms, and works by Dove, Villette, Robles, and Howells.
