The Greenwood Chorale celebrates 15 years of music-making with a special anniversary concert featuring Antonio Vivaldi's Gloria and Magnificat, performed with a 15-piece chamber orchestra and featured soloists Laurissa Backlin and Shelly Garlotte. The choice of Vivaldi's Gloria holds particular significance for the ensemble—fifteen years ago, the newly formed Greenwood Chorale performed the work as part of one of its early concerts. Returning to the Gloria for the anniversary season offers an opportunity to revisit the music that helped begin the Chorale's story while celebrating the many singers who have been part of that story through the years. Founded in 2011, the Greenwood Chorale is a community ensemble dedicated to sharing choral music with the Mississippi Delta, offering free concerts to the public each season. This concert is free and open to the public. Donations are welcome and help support the Chorale's mission of bringing beautiful music to the Delta community. Singers interested in joining the Chorale for this anniversary season are welcome—no audition required. Contact Paul Brown at pvbrown.rn@gmail.com for more information.
