Don't miss these incredible artists performing with us this weekend! March 17, Saint Jude church in Hinesburg, concerts at 2 and 4:30 pm:
🎶Soprano Cristina Escobedo comes to us all the way from Peru! You might have seen her as the soprano soloist in The Messiah with the Vermont Philharmonic, or at Carnegie Hall this past January. Next weekend she'll lend her ethereal voice to sing with the chorus, and will bring us solo performances of Te Quiero Dijiste and The Silver Aria.
🎵Tenor Cameron Brownell comes to us all the way from Hinesburg! You might know him as the Vocal Music Teacher at CVU, the music director at Charlotte Congregational Church, or the assistant conductor of Solaris Vocal Ensemble. Next weekend, along with supporting the chorus, he will wow us with his powerful solo of Simple Song, from Leonard Bernstein's Mass.
🎻Cellist Jiwon Lee needs no introduction, but we'll do it anyway! Our favorite guest cellist comes to us from Seoul, South Korea, teaches cello at Brown's River Middle School, and is on the faculty at Vermont Youth Orchestra Association and UVM. You will not want to miss her performance of Be Thou My Vision.
🎵Baritone Gary Moreau also needs no introduction.... What else can we say about the educator, past president and current treasurer of the Vermont Music Educators Association, festival director of the Champlain Valley Music Festival, and one of the most in-demand soloists throughout Vermont?! Other than how thrilled we are for his solo in our performance of Mark Haye's Spirit Suite II.
