Dear Friends of the Connecticut Choral Society,
As we approach the end of 2024, we are very grateful for your continued support as we continue to emerge and grow from the Pandemic years.
We had a wonderful year with the singing of the magnificent Monteverdi Vespers last May, accompanied by Orchestra Nexus under the direction of Eric Dale Knapp, and supported by professional soloists. This was an enormous undertaking which culminated in a packed house at Trinity Episcopal Church in Newtown.
On December 8, the Connecticut Choral Society, in conjunction with Trinity Episcopal Church, presented Evensong, a free service of music and word as a refuge of peace and joy in an otherwise hectic season.
This past fall we have been rehearsing the Brahms Requiem which will be presented in March 2025, again with Orchestra Nexus and professional soloists. This will also be held at Trinity Episcopal Church, with their wonderful acoustics, followed by an Afterglow reception to which everyone is invited.
On Palm Sunday, April 13, 2025, we will have a Messiah Sing, parts II & III, which is open to singers and listeners alike. This will be held at Valley Presbyterian Church in Brookfield with Linda-Sweetman Waters on the Organ, professional soloists, and Maestro Eric Dale Knapp conducting.
May 2025 will complete our 24-25 season with “Celebrate America”, again accompanied by Orchestra Nexus and held at Trinity Episcopal Church in Newtown.
If you would like to become a sponsor for one of the events in 2025 or a donor to help defray the costs of each concert, we will gladly accept your contribution. Simply donate NOW by credit card through our secure online portal or mail a check to Connecticut Choral Society, Box 42, Southbury, CT 06488.
All gifts are gratefully accepted. Help us continue to bring joy and support to our local communities.
Blessings to All,
With deepest gratitude,
Jill Heidel, President
