The Spring Concert will feature an early work by Haydn, the St. Nicolas Mass. It is new to the chorale and a real choral gem. Soloists are Penny Quinn, Soprano, Lynn Ivey, Alto, Rhonert Pascual, Tenor, and Monty Joham, Bass. Soloists, Chorale and Orchestra are directed by Ernest Siva.
The Concert will also include several settings of the Ave Maria, one by tenor Rhonert Pascual and another by Banning's own Bill Bell. Other composers include Franz Biebl and Morten Lauridsen. The concert ends with some patriotic music in honor of Armed Forces Day.
A reception follows the concert.

First Three Rehearsals
Its summer and many are traveling, enjoying the summer. We’ve had three rehearsals of the Chorale and each time, some singers were missing. Most of our regulars attended at least one rehearsal, and got their music.
Our major work for the Christmas concert is Haydn’s Missa Cellensis. We will perform is as an “English Mass,” that is, the Kyrie and Gloria only. That leaves us more time for several Christmas anthems. The mass is beautiful, and difficult.
We’re working on several Christmas anthems.
A Spotless Rose by Herbert Howells sets a 14th Century text. It has a beautiful baritone solo.
An Ave Maria by Franz Biebl was originally written for a Firemen’s chorus in England. It is for 8 parts and very beautiful. Those firemen were very talented indeed!
Past Three O’Clock is a song of a 17th Century London town crier. It is arranged for chorus and harp by Cary Radcliff.
Remember, O Thou Man is another 17th Century text, arranged by Robert Jordahl.
Popular choral composer, John Rutter, wrote the festive Rejoice and be Merry for chorus and hand bells.
Brazilian Christmas Carol, for chorus and percussion, is composed by Benjamin Harlan. We’ll sing it in English.
So far, the singers really like all the music. Come join us and keep cool by singing Christmas music all summer!
