[NEohioPAL] Cleveland Chamber Choir

[Kira McGirr]

The regional premier professional choral ensemble, the Cleveland Chamber
Choir, will present the music of trailblazing Jewish Renaissance composer,
Salamone Rossi on March 1st and 2nd. In "Synagogue and Salon: The Hebrew
Psalms and Madrigals of Salamone Rossi", the Choir invites you on a walk
through Renaissance-era Mantua, experiencing the music of the streets, the
court, the salons, and the synagogues. They will share both the pioneering
sacred choral music for Jewish services, and also the secular music Rossi
wrote for the Court of Mantua, where he, along with his contemporary
Monteverdi, was among the most celebrated of composers of the time.

Delight in new Renaissance-style dances choreographed by Assistant
Conductor Anna O’Connell and violinist Phaik Tzhi Chua. Enjoy instrumental
accompaniment by Phaik Tzhi Chua (violin), Abigail Hakel-Garcia (violin),
Jane Leggiero (cello), Natalie Mealey (organ), Adrian Murillo (theorbo),
and Anna O’Connell (harp).

The Choir will partner with the youth choir HaZamir Cleveland for these
concerts. HaZamir is a youth movement that offers high schoolers the
opportunity to learn and sing Jewish choral music, and create enduring
friendships that transcend geographic, political, social, and
denominational differences. Additional support is provided by a grant from
Cuyahoga Arts & Culture.
