The Harvard-Radcliffe Collegium Musicum and the Radcliffe Choral Society present:

REQUIESCAT

a fall concert conducted by Beth Willer and Joseph Fort

Join us for an evening of dazzling choral works presented by the Harvard-Radcliffe Collegium Musicum and the Radcliffe Choral Society, two of the most critically acclaimed choruses in the country. The annual fall concert is titled Requiescat, a term for a prayer or wish for the repose of the souls of the dead, as this concert marks the beginning of a year-long series reflecting on the Civil War. We invite you to enjoy a wide range of classic and modern works that span six centuries of music. Notable composers include Lang, Dunstaple, Byrd, Schumann, and Tomkins.

Saturday, November 1 at 8pm; Sanders Theatre. Tickets: students and seniors $10; general admission $20, available from choir members or at the Harvard Box Office (Holyoke Arcade, open 12–6pm, Tuesday-Sunday; call 617-496-2222 or visit www.ofa.fas.harvard.edu/boxoffice). SEF-eligible.

An Introduction

As Harvard’s celebrated mixed choir, The Harvard-Radcliffe Collegium Musicum creates music of the highest caliber through its dynamic performances, adventurous collaborations, and community engagement. Our members take pride in performing as soloists in choral-orchestral masterworks, taking on challenging student leadership positions, and premiering the compositions of their fellow Collegiites. Together, we form a tight-knit, fun family of singers.

Collegium also has a lighthearted contemporary a cappella subset called Underground that performs everything from Disney to Led Zeppelin, while maintaining the same musical quality as if performing Bach.
