Join Opus 7 Vocal Ensemble for a celebration of the joy and mystery of the holiday season with a stunning program of Advent and Christmas music in the splendor of St. James Cathedral. The centerpiece is Benjamin Britten’s A Boy Was Born, written when he was just nineteen.
This remarkable work pairs Opus 7 with St. James Cathedral’s Jubilate! Young Women’s Ensemble, directed by Stacey Sunde, in a vivid retelling of the Christmas story through medieval carols and sweet lullabies, culminating in a jubilant finale.
The program also features music by Eric Whitacre, Stephen Paulus, Steve Martland, Hugo Distler, Per Nørgård, and a world premiere by Seattle composer Robert Duisberg. This holiday event is not to be missed!
