LOCATION:Alix Goolden Hall :: 907 Pandora Ave Victoria,  V8V 3N4
DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:<p>The Victoria Philharmonic Choir opens its Season of "Peace and Calm" with Ralph Vaughan Williams&rsquo; heart-rending cry for peace and reconciliation, "Dona Nobis Pacem," inspired by the composer&rsquo;s experiences as an ambulance driver on the WWI battlefields, and composed in 1936. The second half is Giacomo Puccini&rsquo;s "Messa di Gloria," written in 1876 when the composer was just 18.</p>=0D=0A=
<p>It&rsquo;s an exuberant, even theatrical setting of a full Mass, with a joyous Gloria and several other beautiful melodies that foreshadow Puccini&rsquo;s operas that were to come. The concert features a large orchestra that includes members of the Victoria Symphony, and soloists: Canadian/British soprano Eve Daniell, tenor Nolan Kehler, baritone Andrew Greenwood and bass Gary Relyea.</p>=0D=0A=
