Music of Mozart and Haydn
Music on the Hill performs two jewels of the Classical era at the Wilton Presbyterian Church
The Music on the Hill Festival Chorus performs the Mozart Missa brevis in F and Haydn's Little Organ Mass on Sunday, March 19, at 3 p.m. at the Wilton Presbyterian Church, located in the WEPCO church complex at 48 New Canaan Road in Wilton.
The concert features the chorus performing with soloists, strings, and with featured artist Ellen Dickinson, organist, playing the extended organ solo that gives the Haydn Missa brevis its popular name. Artistic director David H. Connell conducts.
The concert's musical selections share the qualities esteemed by the Age of Reason that produced them: clarity, rationality, and calm. They will be performed here in a singular space for music that combines understated elegance with vibrant acoustics.
