  3. Pacific Chorale Presents Tarik O'Regan World Premiere and Vaughn Williams' Dona Nobis Pacem


The remarkable stylistic range and exceptional musical artistry of the Grammy-nominated Pacific Chorale, led by Artistic Director Robert Istad, will be on full display in its season finale on Saturday, May 7, 2022, 5:00 pm, at the Rene and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall in Costa Mesa. Istad conducts the choirs first-ever performance of Ralph Vaughan Williams masterwork Dona Nobis Pacem, a sublime setting of Walt Whitmans poetry, with renowned guest artists soprano Deanna Breiwick, a vocal trapeze artist hailed for her sweet sound and floating high notes (The New York Times), and Grammy Award-winning bass-baritone Dashon Burton, who delivers the kind of top-shelf performance that has sealed his reputation as one of todays most compelling performers (The Boston Globe). Pacific Symphony joins the chorus for the eclectic program as well, which opens with the world premiere of The Quickening, a new choral fanfare by Grammy-nominated former Pacific Chorale Composer-in-Residence Tarik ORegan, and also showcases the West Coast premiere of Frank Tichelis Until Forever Fades Away, a poetic meditation on the elusive nature of time. Other works include Pulitzer Prize winner Caroline Shaws playful Music in Common Time for choir and orchestra and Jake Runestads exuberant setting of Whitmans Proud Music of the Storm, evoking the spirit of adventure.Directly following the concert, Pacific Chorale will hold its annual gala, this year themed A Celebration of the Voice and honoring Pacific Chorale singer and philanthropist, Lenora Meister with the Entrepreneur of the Arts Award, and Pacific Symphony Music Director Carl St.Clair with the Lifetime Achievement for Artistic Excellence, in honor of his three decades of artistic collaboration with the Chorale. All proceeds from the Gala will benefit the Chorales artistic and educational programming. Single tickets for Dona Nobis Pacem range from $25-$135. The Rene and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall is located at 600 Town Center Drive, Costa Mesa, CA 92626.
