Inspired to Joy

The Seraphim Singers


Has JOY resurfaced in your life recently, despite challenges? Come to this choral concert to be inspired by stories of hope, consolation, praise, and JOY!


Seraphim’s March 2 program will explore JOY in its many facets through the works of J.S. Bach, Biebl, Coleridge-Taylor, Duruflé, Mendelssohn, Parry, a new commission by Trevor Weston, and others. We have been through many challenges in recent years, with more to come. Yet, JOY resurfaces. Join us to CELEBRATE that JOY - irrepressible and unmistakably human, emerging even without reason and in spite of reasons.


We will present the composer of our featured commission, Trevor Weston, along with the lyricist Angelo Geter in a pre-concert forum at 7:30 pm on March 2. During the concert spoken word artist Geter will recite his poem "Praise" prior to performance of the new piece, which Dr. Weston has entitled "Lauda." We encourage you to take advantage of the plentiful parking available at the venue in West Roxbury and the opportunity to greet our honored guests following the concert. 


Take advantage of the 50 free tickets we're offering to residents of the West Roxbury area. This offer is for first time concert attendees only. See bit.ly/seraphim-tickets to register.
