What a thrilling first rehearsal with all ensembles involved for Fridays performance of Carmina Burana! Quartz is acting as soloists and chamber ensemble for select movements. Looking forward to dress rehearsal tonight!

Following the Carmina tutti, Quartz began work on our repertoire for our Palm Sunday performance at Church of the Good Shepherd led by Artistic Director Joshua Harper. It’s going to be a fantastic weekend of music!
