Sue and I sang with this group in the early 1990s, but it sorta disbanded for a while and we were quite involved with the Monadnock Chorus, etc. I am now singing with the PCC again. It's an excellent group of singers that performs a'cappella music, often from the Medieval and Renaissance periods--music I love.
We are currently preparing for a concert on October 21. The concert will be held in a beautiful stone church in Jaffrey--wonderful acoustics and a perfect setting for the music we will be performing.
What are we singing, you ask? Here's the program (I'm sure you will recognize the names of all the composers!). Note that most of the pieces are settings of the Ave Maria text--I'm really looking forward to the concert.
Leonarda— Ave
Clemens— Ave Maria
Grieg— Ave maris stella
Mozart— Ave verum corpus
Willan—I beheld her, beautiful as a dove
Willan—Fair in face
Verdonck— Ave Maria
Parsons— Ave Maria
Pärt— Bogoroditse Devo
