Rachmaninoff's All-Night Vigil
$10-$39
Cappella Romana’s 24th Annual Season opens with Sergei Rachmaninoff’s monumental All-Night Vigil (also known as the Vespers), in celebration of the 100th anniversary of its premiere in 1915. Impassioned and hauntingly beautiful, the All-Night Vigil is a pinnacle of the Russian choral repertoire. The performance will include psalms and hymns by Tchaikovsky and others to place Rachmaninoff’s work within its larger context.
Cappella Romana favorite Mark Bailey guest directs a large choir with soloists, featuring Rev. Dr. Nicholas Denysenko from Los Angeles as the deacon.
