Music from the Romantic Era

The Dalton Chorale presents Music from the Romantic Era: César Franck’s Mass in A Major, Samuel Coleridge-Taylor’s Jubilate Deo, Amy Beach’s Peace I Leave With You, and Gabriel Fauré’s Cantique de Jean Racine.

On Tuesday, May 7, at Manhattan’s Presbyterian Brick Church, the Dalton Chorale under the direction of Claudia Dumschat presents César Franck’s Mass in A Major, Samuel Coleridge-Taylor’s Jubilate Deo, Amy Beach’s Peace I Leave With You, and Gabriel Fauré’s Cantique de Jean Racine.

The chorus will be accompanied by Ray Nagem on the organ, Lynette Wardle on the harp, and Benjamin Wolfe on the cello. The evening’s soloists will be Mithuna Sivaraman, soprano; David Root, tenor; and Peter Stewart, baritone.

The Dalton Chorale, now in its 32nd year, provides its members with the opportunity to sing major sacred and secular works dating from the 17th to the 21st centuries. Although originally drawn from alumni of the Dalton School, the Chorale’s members are now a richly diverse ensemble of serious amateurs from the wider musical community who enjoy the commitment and communal effort required to perform great music for chorus and orchestra.

This program is supported, in part, by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council.
