Cantata Gold

While not ABBA’s greatest hits, nor a buffet of Bach’s greatest cantatas, this concert does indeed promise a golden selection of handpicked works from a list of the choir’s programmes since the winter of 2012. Call it our ‘greatest hits’ or call it what we love to sing! Come and enjoy an evening of celebration as we share and revisit beloved repertoire including music by Bach, Brahms, Bruckner, Rheinberger, Mendelssohn, plus some contemporary treasures including Kris Fulton’s Prometheus and a new commission by Sam Dabrusin. What makes this night truly ‘gold’ is that our bass Doug Colpitts sang his first VCS concert back in February of 1976 and thus this concert marks his 50th year of singing in the Vancouver Cantata Singers! Wow!
