Sonoma State Faculty Recital: Joyfully We Sing
Thursday, February 23rd, 2023
7:30 PM
Featuring:
Christa Durand
Krista Wigle
Yvonne Wormer
As we were choosing a unifying theme for this program, a feeling that came up for us was the gratitude that we all had for this space and the ability to practice and perform music with wonderful colleagues. It is a joy to sing for an audience, and a joy to be together. This concert represents a collection of some of our favorite classical and operatic composers and pieces to perform. Selections include works by Vivaldi, Mendelssohn, Price, Faure, Puccini, Meyerbeer, Massenet, and more. We hope that you can join us on February 23rd, 2023 for a joyful celebration of art song and aria.
