Hudson Valley Singers of Westchester Perform In NYC Despite Cancellations
By: Gabrielle Sierra
The Hudson Valley Singers of Westchester will be performing this coming Saturday night if they have to stand out in the rain in Central Park. The choral group hit a streak of bumps in the road that almost closed them down but St Michael's Church on 99th and Amsterdam came to their rescue at the last minute. . Along with a visiting chorus from the Netherlands, Hét Concertkoor, the singers will be performing the beautiful and universally recognized masterpiece, Dvorak's Stabat Mater.
The Hudson Valley Singers of Westchester first got displaced when they found out that the venue for their performance, The Church of St. Paul The Apostle near Lincoln Center, was being temporarily closed due to a fatal accident. A father-to-be construction worker, Janusz Zdybel, plunged 12 stories to his death while installing a safety net under the ceiling of the Church. Then group found another Church, The Church of the Blessed Sacrament, only to find out that there was a previously scheduled event for the following day that caused some staging problems.THE HUDSON VALLEY SINGERS ARE SURVIVORS AND ARE NOW ALL SET TO PERFORM:Stabat Mater by Antonin Dvorak, an oratorioHudson Valley Singers, Hét Concertkoor, New York Metamorphoses Orchestra, Natalya Kraevsky, soprano; Rebecca Ringle, mezzo-soprano; Alex Vermuelen, tenor; Eric Keller, bass; Eugene Sirotkine, conductorTickets: $20 in advance, $25 at the door
