Glorious choral music of the season, featuring the Pergolesi Stabat Mater – a musical setting of one of the most powerful medieval poems, which meditates on the suffering of Mary, the mother of Jesus. The Chapel Choir is thrilled to welcome mezzo soprano Paula Rockwell as guest soloist, singing alongside our own soprano Ellen Torrie. A small ensemble featuring Symphony Nova Scotia musicians, and the women of the Chapel Choir will be directed by John Scott from the harpsichord. Rounding out the program, the full Chapel Choir will sing music from the 13th to the 21st century, completing the journey of the Great Vigil in anticipation of Easter.
