The Victoria Choral Society, under the direction of Brian Wismath, will perform Golden Harvest by Larysa Kuzmenko, libretto by Talia Zajac, and The Houses Stand Not Far Apart by John Estacio, libretto by John Murrell, OC.
The program features vocal soloists Betty Waynne Allison (soprano) and Nathan McDonald (baritone). The choir is accompanied by an orchestra of musicians from the Victoria Symphony.
Please join us for an afternoon of dramatic, powerful music telling of an immigrant experience, and of survival, hope and peace. Don’t miss this rare chance to hear composer John Estacio in conversation on stage with Music Director Brian Wismath.
The Victoria Choral society, founded in 1934, is a mixed-voice auditioned symphonic choir dedicated to presenting the finest choral music from baroque to contemporary, achieving excellence through innovation and collaboration. It continues to play a leading role in Victoria’s cultural life.
