2011-2012 Season Finale

For the final concert of the season, Exultate welcomes the world-renowned Toronto Children’s Chorus for a special performance that unites two cultures. The Karanga or call comes from across the Pacific Ocean. It brings music from Aotearoa (the Maori name for New Zealand) and Australia and joins it with the sounds of the Canadian landscapes. Our Canadian landscape is also reflected in the venue for this concert, Toronto’s St. Anne’s Anglican Church, home to breathtaking paintings by the Group of Seven. The musical panorama captures two distinctive moonlit vistas, one in the Canadian wilderness and on the rugged New Zealand coast, while other music portrays the influence and important contribution of indigenous peoples.

2011-2012 Season Launched!

 

Exultate’s 2011-2012 season, conducted by our newly appointed Artistic Director Dr Karen Grylls ONZM, presents the beginning of a new era for the choir. In the first two concerts, the music comes from the beginning of the liturgical year, focussing on Mary as the Rose and the celebration of Christmas; Canadian composers Craig Galbraith, Lydia Adams and Eleanor Daley feature in these concerts. The major work in the third programme presents an Estonian in exile, working in Berlin; Arvo Pärt’s Berliner Messe is a striking work which distils the composer’s new compositional style. “On a Pacific current” forges a new collaboration for Exultate with the Toronto Children’s Chorus. We end our season with this concert at the glorious St. Anne’s Church, presenting works from New Zealand and Canadian Composers. Welcome to Exultate, Exultate!
