Weekend Concert Calendar, 7/24/08

It has been a long week, featuring, among other things, me moving. So, you are going to get a particularly brusque calendar.

First of all, stop the presses! Chanticleer is coming to town! Well, to the state, at least. They will be at Tanglewood on Thursday, July 31 (one week from today.) Curses...I can't make it. But you should go!

On Saturday the Berkshire Choral Festival is performing Handel's Solomon at 8 pm in Sheffield, MA, if you are out that way.

On Sunday the Boston Landmarks Orchestra is doing a Neighborhood Concert in Dorchester Park. It's at 6:30 pm, and they'll be doing Gershwin and gospel. More info here.

Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, don't forget about the Boston Opera Collaborative's production of Mozart's The Magic Flute.

Summer sing: Monday, July 28, 7:30 pm, Mozart Requiem, hosted by Chorus pro Musica. Location: Old South Church, 645 Boylston Street, Boston.

Summer sing: Monday, July 28, 8:00 pm, Brahms Requiem, hosted by the Paul Madore Chorale. Location: Old Town Hall, 32 Derby Square, Salem.

Summer sing: Monday, July 28, 7:00 pm, Mozart's Regina Coeli and Vivaldi's Gloria (finally, something other than requiems!), hosted by the Nashua Symphony Chorus. Location: First Church of Christ, Scientist at 115 Concord Street, Nashua, NH.

Summer sing: Tuesday, July 29, 8:00 pm, Faure Requiem, hosted by Masterworks Chorale.

    Allegra, have you been reading or hearing anything from the World Symposium on Choral Music in Copenhagen? (http://www.choraldenmark.org/) I just caught the end of some amazing Norwegian songs on Performance Today. (http://www.publicradio.org/columns/performancetoday/fredlines/) It seems like something you might be interested in.
