Handel and Haydn Society: Handel and Beethoven

Reawaken your senses, reinvigorate your spirit, and celebrate spring with your H+H community! Harmonies burst through the Symphony Hall air like daffodils through the snow as Jonathan Cohen leads the superlative H+H Orchestra and Chorus in that sweetest of Haydn’s The Seasons. Then, our “gem of a chorus…makes a truly glorious noise” (The Boston Musical Intelligencer) as serenity gives way to rapture in Beethoven’s mesmerizing Mass in C Major.

RV Williams' Sea Symphony with Cape Cod Symphony

Featured Artist:

James Blachly, Conductor

Sonja Tengblad, Soprano

Bradford Gleim, Baritone

Metropolitan Chorale of Brookline

Masterpiece 5

The grandeur of the sea has enthralled the artistic imagination since the dawn of time. Like painters and poets, composers from Beethoven to Wagner and Rimsky-Korsakov to Led Zeppelin have aspired to capture the massive force of our oceans in their work. Our fascination with this natural resource is primal and unceasing. In this program, the music of Maurice Ravel, Toru Takemitsu, and Ralph Vaughan Williams brings the sea to the concert stage, from its calmest to its most majestic beauty.
