Kings Chorale

Congratulations to Kings Chorale, the Baroque N’ Fiddle String Quartet, cellist Colin Matthews, mezzo-soprano Christianne Rushton, bassist Pam Mason, and narrator Charles Bull for an excellent performance at the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic. It was a wonderful way to comemorate the sinking of the Titanic and pay tribute to all who lost their lives.

Thanks to composer Donald Patriquin for his very moving Requiem on poetry by Wolfgang Kater. And thanks to Donald as well for attending both concerts.

In commemoration of the sinking of the Titanic 100 years ago, Kings Chorale will present two concerts entitled TITANIC REMEMBERED: RECOLLECTIONS AND REFLECTIONS. These will take place on Saturday, April 28 at Wolfville Baptist Church and on Sunday, April 29 in Halifax at the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic. Both concerts will take place at 7:30 pm.

The concert will explore music contemporary music of the era that would have been familiar to passengers aboard the Titanic. Interspersed with those pieces will be commentary about the ship, the sinking, and connections to Nova Scotia.

The centrepiece for the concert will be TITANIC REQUIEM by Quebec composer Donald Patriquin. It will feature mezzo-soprano, Christianne Rushton as well as the Baroque N’ Fiddle String Quartet.
