Many Holy Cross musical ensembles and performers will join
together for this jubilant celebration of the Jesuits and their multifaceted
relationship to music: as composers, performers, scholars, patrons, dedicatees,
and more. This Lessons-and-Carols style concert will feature a wide-ranging
program, with student essays on the Jesuits’ contributions to the field of
music interspersed with performances by the College Choir, Chamber Singers,
Organ Scholars, Brooks Scholars, Chamber Orchestra, Marching Band, many
talented soloists, as well as students taking the "Music & the
Jesuits" and "Senior Seminar" courses. The musical program will
consist of music by Jesuit composers, settings of Jesuit poetry, commissions by
Jesuit institutions—all honoring the historical influence of Jesuits on our
musical life. Sponsored by the Department of Music, the Office of the College
Chaplains, the Office of Mission and Identity and the the 175th Anniversary
Committee. An event of the 175th
Anniversary of the College.
