The Sacred Veil
Sunday, February 22, 4:00pm

The Sacred Veil is one of the most intimate and powerful works of our time. With music by Grammy-winning composer Eric Whitacre and text by poet Charles Anthony Silvestri, this deeply moving oratorio honors the life and passing of Silvestri’s wife after her battle with cancer. Through haunting harmonies and raw, lyrical beauty, the Chorale brings this transformative work to local audiences for the first time. An experience of vulnerability, connection, and healing through music.
French Connection
featuring Francis Poulenc’s Gloria
Sunday, May 17, 4:00pm
CSU Griffin Concert Hall, 1400 Remington St, Fort Collins CO 80524
The Larimer Chorale season closes in grand and joyful style with French Connection, a celebration of French composers whose works are as vibrant as they are timeless. Joined by a full orchestra, the Larimer Chorale brings to life the lush harmonies of Fauré, the spirited drama of Bizet, and the playful elegance of Ravel. The program culminates in Poulenc’s exuberant Gloria, a choral and orchestral tour de force of reverence and rhythmic energy. The afternoon ends on a light and heartfelt note with an audience “hum-along” of the beloved classic La Vie en Rose, sending everyone off with a smile and a song.
