Enough of all this serious choral music! SVE concludes the 2010-11 concert season with a ridiculous mix of choral hilarity. It is safe to promise that much laughter will be had on this night of utter foolishness, as SVE performs works from Mikhail Glinka to PDQ Bach, and much more. Do yourself a favor and don't miss this one!


WHAT THEY'RE SAYING

"SVE gave a remarkable performance and the mundane concerns of life were transcended ... the audience held its collective breath, hesitating, unwilling to disturb the intensity of the experience."
The Rakhmaninov Vespers, 2010
