Key Chorale and The Sarasota Ballet Studio Company celebrate the magic of the season for Joy & Wonder on Sunday, November 30 at the Sarasota Opera House. Audiences will be enchanted by a tapestry of music and movement featuring the festive sounds of brass and the radiant voice of Lithuanian soprano Lina Dambrauskaite, and the 100-voice Key Chorale for two Medieval inspired compositions. Experience the world premiere dance of Missa Carolae by English composer James Whitbourn and Ola Gjeilo’s lush and moving Dreamweaver inspired by a medieval folk tale of transformation. New holiday works by Jacob Narverud, Dan Forrest and Karl Jenkins complete this welcome holiday tradition. GRAMMY-nominated English composer James Whitbourn’s Missa Carolae, commissioned for the 1400th anniversary of Rochester Cathedral in England, draws on a centuries-old form called theparody mass—sacred texts set to familiar carols. Listeners will recognize melodies such as In dulci jubilo, God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen, and Lo, How a Rose E’er Blooming, woven into a work that dances with joy and reverence. This music comes to life through original choreography by Brittany Pollack, Soloist with New York City Ballet.
