The Choir’s subscription series this year highlighted the 350th year of Purcell’s birth and the 200th year of Haydn’s death with stirring music in Haydn • Bach • Purcell Celebration, performing two festive cantatas by Bach with Ottawa-based international soprano, Donna Brown. Christmas Around the World comprised new and old favourites for the season from around the globe, and the final concert Miserere, presented music for Passiontide from the late Renaissance and early Baroque periods, featuring Victoria’s strikingly beautiful Officium Defunctorum (Requiem).
