Our season opens with an all-Mendelssohn program that displays some of the musical and thematic pillars that made
him one of the most distinguished and famous composers today.

* String Octet
* The First Walpurgis Night (text by Goethe)
* Hear My Prayer and
* Psalm 42

As we examine the music that defined the start of Mendelssohn’s career, it is a joy to feature the 2023 Collegiate Vocal
Competition Winners as the soloists for these choral-orchestral masterworks.
