On Sunday, January 26, at 3:00 pm, the Chamber Singers of the Chatham Chorale appeared at the Cape Cod Museum of Art in Dennis as part of the museum’s “Music & More! concert series. The string players of Quartett Giocosa and Cape Symphony keyboardist Donald Enos joined the singers in an intimate program of choral music. Repertoire ranged from the 16th century (Palestrina) to the late 20th century (Eric Whitacre’s “Five Hebrew Love Songs” and “Ecce Novum” by Ola Gjeilo), and included selections from Haydn’s “Little Organ Mass” and seasonal works.
Chatham Chorale is one of Cape Cod’s longest-established choral ensembles, for 49 years presenting an annual concert series with programs ranging from choral masterworks to Broadway, pops stylings, and premieres of new works by regional composers. The Chorale also regularly collaborates with the Cape Symphony—for example, in the annual Holiday Pops concerts—and sings in service to the community.
In 1976 the Chatham Chorale Chamber Singers, a smaller chorus composed of approximately 25 voices selected from the larger Chorale, was created to perform music written for smaller ensembles in more intimate spaces.
