Music for a Winter Solstice with the Heliand Consort
Saturday, December 20, 7:30 pm
The Spruce Peak Performing Arts Center is pleased to welcome the Heliand Consort for a special concert this Saturday. “Music For a Winter Solstice” combines Renaissance-themed quintets by Milhaud and Roseman and Scandinavian solstice songs to evoke the short days, long dark nights and crystalline cold air of midwinter. The evening also includes contemporary works by D’Rivera and Valerie Coleman to create the festive feel of the holiday season. Heliand’s trademark sung portion includes songs by Vermont composer Don Jamison, portraying the bright stars of winter nights. The performance features Heliand Consort musicians Berta Fluke (flute), Elizabeth LeBlanc (clarinet), Rachael Elliott (bassoon), and Katie Oprea (oboe), with special guest artists Alan Parsley on the French horn.
Tickets: $20 in advance; $25 after 5pm day of the performance.
