Sumptuous Planet with Chicago Chamber Choir
Brushwood Center at Ryerson Woods
21850 N. Riverwoods Rd. Riverwoods, IL
October 8, 2022 | 3pm - 3:45pm
Titled Sumptuous Planet, our fall 2022 performance at Brushwood focuses on humanity’s relationship with the natural world. The concert title is drawn from a work of the same name by Philadelphia-based composer David Shapiro, and each composition is selected to draw attention to the stewardship of our planet, the beauty of the world around us, and the fragility of the environment.
About Chicago Chamber Choir
The mission of the Chicago Chamber Choir is to create experiences that engage our community in high-quality choral art. Our vision is to be Chicago’s preeminent avocational choral ensemble through diverse and innovative programming, excellence in artistry, and community enrichment.
The Chicago Chamber Choir's 40 singers come from a variety of backgrounds. Some are professional musicians, others are teachers, and still others have careers in fields as diverse as law and medicine. They are united through their passion for world-class choral singing.
The choir's repertoire is diverse and expansive; each program carefully curated, drawing from the immense collection of choral music throughout history and around the world. CCC has a special interest in contemporary choral music and how it speaks to the lives and values of modern singers and audiences.
The Chicago Chamber Choir is committed to extending our community beyond our singing members to other musicians, community partners, and our audience. We seek to use music to effect positive change in the world. Collaboration, with groups large and small, is part of that identity. Collaborating musical ensembles include CHAI Collaborative Ensemble, Youth Choral Theater of Chicago, and the Lakeview Orchestra. Community partnerships include the Chicago Historical Society and Night Ministry.
