Choir reaches to
Christmases past

THE VANCOUVER
Chamber Choir reaches back
to Christmases past to pres-
ent A Baroque Christmas on
Friday, December 13 at the
Orpheum,

The Vancouver Chamber
Choir’s traditional Baroque
Christmas concert features
the Canadian premieres of
two choral/orchestral works:
Monteverdi’s Christmas
Vespers and Pergolesi's rare-
ly heard Missa Romana for
two choirs and orchestras.
Also on this program will
be a special work by the
CBC Vancouver Orchestra,
Manfredini’s Christmas
Concerto.

A Baroque Christmas has
become a Vancouver tradi-
tion. In 1980 the Vancouver
Chamber Choir with guest

conductor John Eliot Gar-
diner started the tradition at
Ryerson Church.

In the intervening years, A
Baroque Christmas has
changed location from Ryer-
son Church to the Orpheum
Theatre. It continues to of-
fer a rich musical feast of
unusual repertoire to the
music-lover in search of an
alternative to Handel’s Mes-
siah.

A Baroque Christmas will
be the third concert of the
Vancouver Chamber Choir’s
1985-86 season. Joined by
the Vancouver Chorale, the
CBC Vancouver Orchestra,
and under the direction of
Conductor Jon Washburn,
this concert promises to add
a special magic to the
Christmas season.

one in your own size and say,
“Shucks, I'll order you another.

But since it fits, I might as well ;

keep this for myself ...”
