Where: Elley-Long Music Center, 223 Ethan Allen Ave., Colchester (in Fort Ethan Allen)

Presented by: Vermont Youth Orchestra Association (VYOA)

The Vermont Youth Chorus Concert features Madrigals from 15th century Spain and Italy as well as modern popular music set in this distinctive style. The program also showcases Shakespearean lyrics from Twelfth Night, Measure for Measure, and Much Ado About Nothing in a contemporary choral triptych by Emma Lou Diemer. Experience the powerful liturgical Latin text from the Matins service set by Mozart’s teacher Giovanni Battista Martini. Finally, enjoy a collection of modern Hebrew “poetic postcards” written by Hila Plitmann to her husband Eric Whitacre who sets them delicately in his Five Hebrew Love Songs.

**We're welcoming new singers & instrumentalists into the VYOA this January. Please visit www.vyo.org or email auditions@vyo.org for more information.
