This festive program features music for chorus, soloists and orchestra by European and Latin American composers J. S. Bach, Vivaldi, Telemann, Purcell, Charpentier, Rameau, Gluck, Zipoli, Zumaya, and Torrejón y Velasco.

The performers are Crescendo Chorus and Period Instrument Orchestra, sopranos Christina Kay and Alicia DePaolo, countertenor Augustine Mercante, tenor Gregório Taniguchi, and bass-baritone Anicet Castel, directed by Crescendo’s founding artistic director Christine Gevert.
