NMC’s newest choral ensemble, Canticum Novum, will present an evening of “Musical Pairs” at three locations June 8-15.
Meaning “new song,” Canticum Novum is under the director of Jeff Cobb. Each concert will feature the choral music of Verdi, Palestrina, Bach, Mozart, Brahms, Randall Thompson, Ward Swingle, and Eric Whitacre. The pieces are paired by theme, inspiration, or other common bond. The 40-member multigenerational ensemble is open by audition only.
Concert dates are:
- Saturday, June 8, 7:30 p.m., Elk Rapids High School, Peterman Auditorium
- Friday, June 14, 7:30 p.m. , Milliken Auditorium
- Saturday, June 15, 7:30 p.m., Suttons Bay Congregational Church
