Sweet and Low

A reduced group of 12 singers presents a captivating program of secular partsongs for chorus and piano, drawn from the heart of German Romanticism. Featuring works by Haydn, Schubert, Mendelssohn, Schumann, and Brahms, the program showcases the emotional depth and lyrical beauty that define this era. Partsongs, the 19th-century successors to earlier forms like the madrigal and glee, serve as a vital bridge between Renaissance vocal traditions and the choral music of today. Acclaimed pianist Jooeun Pak joins the choir for this rich sampling of lush romanticism.
