Community Sing: Fauré’s Requiem
Join us for CCC’s first “Community Sing”: Fauré’s Requiem, featuring organist Charles Sega and baritone/CCC Board President Phillip Dothard. While many requiems are known for their somber nature, Fauré’s unusually gentle mass for the dead stands in stark contrast. Fauré draws on the funeral rite to reimagine a burial service free of fear, trepidation, or judgement; instead full of hope and, in his words, a work "dominated from beginning to end by a very human feeling of faith in eternal rest." Throughout the concert, guest artist Dr. Stephan Griffin (organist, conductor, and baritone) will join CCC’s artistic director Christopher Windle and associate conductor Amy Keipert to provide an illuminating exploration of musical movements in Fauré’s Requiem. This series of short, casual but highly intimate discussions will provide a broader musical context while heightening your enjoyment of and engagement with Fauré’s pivotal work. All registered patrons will have the opportunity to rehearse with the CCC choir over Zoom, and sing with our virtual performance of Fauré’s masterpiece. A distinctly hope-filled work, we offer this performance a year from the start of Chicago's lockdown, in memory of those who have died of COVID-19 and to honor the healthcare workers striving to keep us safe.
