The Arlington Chorale is Celebrating 60 Years Of Singing With A Goal Of Planting 60 Trees

Arlington Chorale 2026-2027 Season Dream With Us Performances:

• October 24, 2026 – For the Earth: Fauré’s Requiem
  • Excerpts from Vivaldi’s Four Seasons side by side with “The [Uncertain] Four Seasons,” a recomposition shaped by climate science that imagines our seasons at their most extreme. A movement from Alex Berko’s Sacred Place then leads into Gabriel Fauré’s Requiem, perhaps the most consoling requiem ever written, sung this evening for the earth itself.
• December 12, 2026 – All is Bright
  • A jubilant Carol of the Bells medley and Jingle Bells with the prayer for peace of Oseh Shalom, Lo, How a Rose E’er Blooming, White Christmas, and Silent Night, Ola Gjeilo’s Dreamweaver.
• March 13, 2027 – After The Dark
  • Excerpts from Vivaldi’s Four Seasons appear alongside The [Uncertain] Four Seasons, a recomposition shaped by climate science that imagines how our seasons may change. Then Elaine Hagenberg’s luminous Illuminare carries us out, a five-movement journey from shadow and uncertainty into clarity and peace.
• April 24, 2027 – Now We Begin
  • The evening opens with Who Will Buy? from Oliver! and Bob Chilcott’s I Share Creation, celebrating the world we hold in common. Then, the Arlington Chorale’s commission: Dominick DiOrio’s Our Future Four Seasons springs from the words of local schoolchildren imagining what the seasons might yet become. The Arlington Chorale is joined by Vivace Children’s Chorus and the George Washington University Singers, three generations of voices on one stage.

All performances begin at 5PM at the Westover Baptist Church except the final performance 4/24/2027 which will be at National City Christian Church in Washington, DC.
