Cleveland Chamber Choir Presents Holiday Concert
by Kira McGirr 12 Dec '23

12 Dec '23

Come celebrate the Holidays with the Cleveland Chamber Choir with carols, Renaissance polyphony, and Sephardic music from Spain and Portugal. The concert will feature familiar favorites, like *Fum, fum, fum* and *Ríu, Ríu Chíu* and Tomás Luis de Victoria’s meditative *O Magnum Mysterium*”. Sure to become new favorites are the fiery ensaladas by Matteo Flecha that combine madrigal, dance and polyphonic traditions. “They are as close to rock music as you get in the early Baroque era,” said Ristow, “and the name of the genre really does mean *salad*, because each piece is like a tossed salad of languages and both secular and sacred musical styles.” Within Flecha’s *La Bomba* you’ll hear “a sea-shanty that meets a sacred Renaissance chanted prayer.” Of particular note are the sacred compositions of Afro-Portuguese composer and music theorist Vicente Lusitano, whose work was neglected and excluded because of his race; and music from the Sephardic Jewish tradition. “Lustino’s music is some of the most striking and beautiful of the High Renaissance, and it’s only in the past several years that it has been rediscovered by choirs,” said Ristow. “We’re excited to share it with Cleveland audiences for the first time.” Friday, December 15, 2023 at 8:00pm, Fairchild Chapel, Oberlin College, 50 W. Lorain St., Oberlin Saturday, December 16, 2023 at 7:00pm, First Baptist Church of Greater Cleveland, 3630 Fairmount Blvd., Cleveland Free-will donations accepted. Ticket reservations requested at clevelandchamberchoir.org. A portion of the free-will donations made at these concerts will be directed towards the Julia De Burgos Cultural Arts Center for these concerts to support their work in serving Latino youth and their families through programs and activities designed to foster cultural pride and art appreciation. A pre-concert talk will be presented by Charles Edward McGuire, PhD, from Oberlin College & Conservatory, 45 minutes before each performance. This concert is presented with generous grants from The Cleveland Foundation, The Gund Foundation, Ohio Arts Council, and Local 4 Music Fund.

11 Dec '23

Cleveland Public Theatre Presents Buried Words, Seeds of Hope<https://www.cptonline.org/performances/seasons/2023-2024/buried-words-seeds…> Part of the Worldwide Ukrainian Play Readings and Benefit for Ukraine Friday, December 15, 2023 Cleveland Public Theatre (CPT) is partnering with the Worldwide Ukrainian Play Readings and Benefit for Ukraine to present a special event called Buried Words, Seeds of Hope on Friday, December 15, 2023. Your ticket to the event includes entry into a pre-show photo exhibit featuring work by Ukrainian artists, followed by an evening of short plays, music and poetry by Ukrainian artists. "More than anything, I want the audience to hear these stories from Ukraine and not forget about the people there who are continuing forward day by day - sowing seeds, making theatre, writing poems, singing songs, and giving their lives for their freedom and the sovereignty of their nation." ―Nadia Tarnawsky, Buried Words, Seeds of Hope director and a featured artist. About the Event Buried Words, Seeds of Hope is a benefit for Ukraine which will feature readings of short plays, poetry and songs that bring forth experiences of playwrights and artists from Ukraine since the war began. Music for the event "belongs to the winter carol/Christmas carol tradition." Some of the short plays presented at the event are described as follows: "Singing with your hands" examines the pull to create something filled with light in the most absurd time of darkness - a war; In Iryna Harets', Planting an Apple Tree the playwright explores the ways in which the invasion of one's country will in turn invade aspects of daily life and force an examination of what was, what is and what will be; and In her play How to Talk to the Dead, Anastasiia Kosodii unleashes a call to action - to tell stories about those who have died so that the dead can speak through them. Plays will be read in English. About the Pre-show Exhibit at 7pm Your ticket to the event includes entry into a special pre-show display in the lobby of the Gordon Square Theatre beginning at 7pm. The display was devised by Buried Words, Seeds of Hope Director Nadia Tarnawsky and includes a presentation by one of the event's donor recipients Cleveland Maidan Association, U.S. Committee for Refugees and Immigrants Cleveland (USCRI)<https://refugees.org/uscri-cleveland/> and images from Ukrainian Museum Archives<https://www.umacleveland.org/>.
