Kāpiti Chorale Presents "European Masters"

Saturday 24 May, 3:00 pm
St Paul’s Church, Paraparaumu

Kāpiti Chorale invites audiences to a concert of sacred choral music by some of Europe’s most celebrated composers.

The programme includes music by Fauré, Haydn, Gounod, Franck, Poulenc, and Mozart, and concludes with a special performance of Messe de la Délivrance by Théodore Dubois. This rarely performed work was written in 1918 to mark the end of the First World War. Rich in drama and expression, it brings the concert to a powerful close.

The Chorale will be joined by soloists:

Barbara Paterson – Soprano

Richard Taylor – Tenor

Charle Rainey – Bass

With instrumentalists:

Jonathan Berkahn – Organ and Piano

Samuel Berkahn – String Bass

The performance is conducted by Musical Director Eric Sidoti, with support from Assistant Musical Director Ann-Marie Stapp.
