The concert will also be presented as a Live Stream on Facebook : https://www.facebook.com/metrochorale/] Musical stories from the World Expositions of Paris, London, New York, Chicago. Showcasing new music and celebrating musical heritage simultaneously, the fairs also featured musicians from many cultures and countries, challenging perceptions that redrew boundaries of musical experience. The journey begins in the late 19th century, where the world's musics collided and new works showcased the talent of the time. From Paris we see that everything old is new again, and New York- we learn that it really is a small world, after all. For more information, call 508-816-3496 or email admin@metropolitanchorale.org.
