SUMMARY:Charis Chamber Voices
DESCRIPTION:CHARIS TO SING MODERN CHORAL CLASSICS \n	Charis Chamber Voices offers two major contemporary works for chorus and string orchestra on its Spring program: Tarik O’Regan’s Triptych and Arvo Pärt’s Berliner Messe. Charis’s Artistic Director\, Jeremy Wiggins\, conducts\, Saturday\, May 3 at 4:00 p.m. at Irvington Presbyterian Church\, 25 North Broadway\, Irvington\, NY\, and Sunday\, May 4\, at 4:00 p.m. at First Presbyterian Church of New Canaan\, 178 Oenoke Ridge Road\, New Canaan\, CT.\n	O’Regan\, born and educated in Britain and now based in San Francisco\, is one of the world’s most prominent choral composers. His Triptych has been called one of his most enduring works. Its texts are taken from Blake\, Milton\, Wordsworth and others\, and some reflect his Arab ancestry. The Estonian composer Arvo Pärt has put his own stamp on the music world. As he approaches his 90th birthday he will be celebrated for his hauntingly spiritual\, often hypnotic style. Berliner Messe sets the text of the Latin Mass with profound feeling and grace. Charis is calling its program “Seraphic Songs”\, to reflect this music that seems to have been touched by angels.\n	Tickets are $25 ($20 for seniors and $15 for students). They may be purchased in advance through the Charis website\, www.charisvocals.com\, or at the door.\n	Charis is an auditioned chorus of about 30 men and women from Westchester County\, NY\, and Fairfield County\, CT. Founded in 1994\, the group is renowned for its diverse repertoire\, unique blend of voices and captivating performances.\nCharis is a media partner of WSHU Public Radio. \n
