Event Detail

The VocalEssence Ensemble Singers & Chorus and twenty marimbas will surround the audience as they perform Gabrieli’s Magnificat à 33 — a stunning work with 33 separate melodic voices spread throughout the Cathedral of Saint Paul! This collaborative performance, in conjunction with the Marimba 2010 Festival & Convention, also features three world premieres — Jorge Córdoba is commemorating the Mexican Bicentennial with a new work, and Stephen Paulus is composing a piece for chorus and marimba as well as a new arrangement of his celebrated “Pilgrim’s Hymn.” Join VocalEssence and conductor Philip Brunelle for a sensational surround sound experience.
