"Benedicite" by Andrew Carter
The adult choirs of First Congregational Church of Shrewsbury, Trinity Church in Northborough and Wesley United Methodist Church of Worcester combine with the Worcester Youth Orchestras, professional players and the FCC children’s choirs to present the English composer Andrew Carter’s Benedicite. This delightful work calls on all the world to “Bless the Lord!” from the natural world of wind, snow and ice, as well as the world of living creatures, from whales to weasels, warthogs and wallabies, all the way down to butterflies and moths! Several other works showcasing many of the participants will be also be featured, including a bassoon concerto by Antonio Vivaldi with bassoonist Michael Westberry.
Suggested donation: $10 adult, $5 children and students
