Pasadena Master Chorale presents Rachmaninoff’s great a cappella work, "The All-Night Vigil," in two performances: Saturday, March 23 at 7:30 PM, and Sunday, March 24, at 4 PM.
The performances will be at Altadena Community Church, 943 East Altadena Drive, and will be especially significant for the chorale:
“One of the editors of the definitive edition of the All-Night Vigil, Alexander Ruggieri, sang with and supported PMC for many years,” explains the Chorale’s founder and artistic director, Jeffrey Bernstein. “Alex loved this piece dearly and was its ardent champion. It seemed the perfect way to honor his memory, to dedicate these two performances of the All-Night Vigil to him.”
Bernstein has also asked Ruggieri’s longtime partner – and PMC Board member – Jamie Martin to sing the alto solo.
Tickets for “All-Night Vigil” are available for $25 general admission, $20 for seniors, and $15 for students. Additionally, admission is FREE at the door to students at Pasadena Unified School District and their parents. Tickets may be purchased by visiting the Pasadena Master Chorale website,www.pasadenamasterchorale.org, through any Chorale member, or at the door.
