| 2009–2010: A Season of Mysteries |
| Four Events Celebrating the Mysteries of Life and Love |
Mysteries of Sacred Laughter |
| Monday, September 28, 2009, 7:30 p.m. |
| H. Michie Akin, Conductor |
| Dallas Museum of Art 1717 N. Harwood Street in the Dallas Arts District |
| Worldly Joy and Sacred Music |
| The last of a series of compositions Rossini intriguingly called “the sins of my old age,” the Petite Messe Solennelle is filled with all the exuberance and intensity of his operas, while retaining the formal elements of the Mass. Originally, the Petite Messe was not written for a church performance, but for a small select audience. Through the Arts District Chorale’s imaginative staging, the sheer variety of Rossini’s music is unlocked and brought to life. Using characters from the commedia dell’arte tradition, Rossini’s delight in the mystery and drama of the Mass is brilliantly underscored. |
| Ticket prices (in advance) $20 General, $15 Senior (65+) $5 Students. For more information about the concert, e-mail info@artsdistrictchorale.org or call us at (214) 942-5085. |

Songs that Reach to Heaven |
| The brightest night of the season comes with the mysteries of new birth and a sense of unity and wonder. On this sacred night, the Arts District Chorale unlocks a new perspective on a familiar venue: the Cathedral Guadalupe. The cathedral’s celebrated acoustics and distinctive gothic architecture create a magical setting for a spectacular encounter. The Arts District Chorale will be joined by the Children’s Chorus of Greater Dallas; Christopher Berry, organist; and Festival Brass. Join us to share the soaring music and joyful celebration of this most special holiday night. |
| Ticket prices (in advance) $20 General, $15 Senior (65+) $5 Students. For more information about the concert, e-mail info@artsdistrictchorale.org or call us at (214) 942-5085. |

Mysteries of Artful Passion |
| Sunday, April 18, 2010, 2:30 & 7:30 p.m. |
| Constantina Tsolainou, Guest Conductor |
| Hamon Recital Hall, Margot and Bill Winspear Opera House 2403 Flora Street in the Dallas Arts District |
| Music of Genius and Obsession |
| In 1855, Johannes Brahms wrote to Clara Schumann, “I can do nothing but think of you...” It was a messy situation, doomed to become still messier. At the time, Clara was 35, Brahms 21. She was already married—wholly and passionately—to Robert Schumann. But after Robert died, Johannes flew to Clara’s side and never truly left. Their love—filled with regret, talent and obsession—continued until their deaths. The Arts District Chorale attempts to unlock this mysterious tangle of love and genius through musical performances and a reading of the lovers’ letters—a compelling event not to be missed. |
| Ticket prices (in advance) $20 General, $15 Senior (65+) $5 Students. For more information about the concert, e-mail info@artsdistrictchorale.org or call us at (214) 942-5085. |
