Exeter’s acclaimed Concert Choir and Chamber Orchestra travelled to California for their first collaborative spring concert tour, March 9 to 14.
The 32-voice Concert Choir, under the direction of Ryan Turner, performed works by Morten Lauridsen, Gwyneth Walker, Gerald Finzi, Eric Whitacre, György Orbán, Bob Chilcott and Jester Hairston. The Chamber Orchestra, under the leadership of Peter Schultz, presented The Overture to Iphigenia in Aulis by Christoph Willibald Gluck, the Claude Debussy Petite Suite and Vaughan Williams English Folk Song Suite. The two ensembles joined forces for the Franz Josef Haydn Te Deum.
