Arts Event

Join Coro Vivo Ottawa in a festive celebration of spirit featuring the work of John Rutter in an arrangement of African-American spiritual music centred on seven spirituals arranged for choir and mezzo-soprano soloist. ‘Feel the Spirit’ received its concert première at Carnegie Hall in June 2001. Rutter is one of England's best-known composers and foremost music scholars of the late 20th century. Presented under the skillful baton of Antonio Llaca, each piece is familiar and well-known, but Rutter’s interpretation makes them fresh and new. Other seasonal, renowned and favourite spirituals are included in a program to welcome the holiday season.
