For our final concert of the 2024-2025 season, we will revisit a favorite masterwork, Brahms’ Ein Deutsches Requiem. We will sing it in the chamber music setting, with two pianists, one being our own, Shawn McCann, and Abigail Charbeneau, which gives the work a sense of intimacy, tenderness, and balance not always found in the orchestral version.  Featuring Deborah Selig, soprano, and David McFerrin, baritone.   For tickets and more information: https://www.nvcsings.org/page/2880310-april-concert.
