Essence - Spirit - Soul. This music is dedicated to seeking out and magnifying the nature and substance of a person, a place, a time, an experience, and faith. Music is unique in its immediate expression of those elements and qualities in our lives that defy language.
The program includes Michael Torke’s Monday, Joseph Haydn’s Symphony No. 22 (The Philosopher), Gabriel Fauré’s Pelléas et Mélisande and JS Bach’s Orchestral Suite No. 3.

The musicians of the Musica Sacra Chamber Orchestra bring a variety of training and experience to the ensemble and a wide array of performing experience.
