Spring Cantata for Baritone, Chorus and Orchestra, op. 20
Piano Concerto No. 3 in D minor, op. 30
The Clarion Choir presents the finale of their multi-year project to perform the complete choral works of Sergei Rachmaninoff in celebration of the composer’s 150th birthday. This endeavor brings to light a lesser-known but central part of Rachmaninoff's body of work. Clarion is joined by Amor Artis Chamber Choir and NOVUS NY, the orchestra in residence at Trinity Church, to mark the culmination of this project with a performance of Rachmaninoff's rarely-heard cantata 'Spring,' and Three Folk Songs for chorus and orchestr. The concert will also feature the composer's beloved Piano Concerto No. 3 in D minor featuring soloist Ilya Maximov. The program will take place in the beautiful St. Bartholomew's Church in New York City.
