Join the Chester River Chorale this spring for “Angels”, an enchanting concert that celebrates the timeless allure of angelic figures across music history. This unique program brings together a vast array of pieces inspired by angels, showcasing both the reverence of classical masters and the spirit of modern folk, country, and rock. From the serene works of Palestrina, Mozart, Brahms, and Faure to soulful tunes from beloved contemporary artists, “Angels” explores how these celestial figures have been seen as protectors, muses, guides, and even rebels.
