Revelations, Revolutions

Pacific Chorale performs Horatio Parker's Hora Novissima and the West Coast premiere of Pulitzer Prize winner David Del Tredici's Paul Revere's Ride. John Alexander conducts.

The famous tale of a patriot’s race to warn his countrymen of threatening forces is brought to stirring life by composer David Del Tredici in the West Coast premiere of Paul Revere’s Ride. Horatio Parker's Hora Novissima, the most frequently performed choral work in the United States prior to World War I, is a soaring meditation on the “new heaven and new earth” promised by the book of Revelation.

With guest artists Pacific Symphony, organist Brian Jones, soprano Lori Stinson, mezzo-soprano Jennifer Roderer, tenor Nicholas Preston, and baritone Malcolm MacKenzie.
