March Madness
CCC had a crazily busy March! In case you missed, here’s some of what we’ve been up to!
Madness & Melancholy 🔥
“A spectacular job! Everyone was in their wheelhouse. And surrounded by famous Renaissance art at the same time – truly a remarkable evening of great, historical music performed exquisitely. Thank you.”
We had a wonderful time performing Madness & Melancholy, our program featuring English mad songs, Italian laments, French arias and excerpts from Dido & Aeneas, at The Cleveland Museum of Art as part of their Chamber Music in the Galleries Series. We look forward to continuing this partnership next season.
Handel’s Messiah with Cleveland Ballet 🩰
Nearly 4,000 people came to experience our performance of Handel’s iconic Messiah with The Cleveland Ballet and BlueWater Chamber Orchestra. Take in some of the videos posted on Cleveland Ballet’s Facebook page.
From the audience:
“The performance was extraordinary. Thank you for sharing your art!”
“We LOVE these collaborative performances!”
“Cleveland Ballet transformed Handel’s Messiah into a breathtaking ballet experience, and I am still thinking about it. BlueWater Chamber Orchestra, Cleveland Chamber Choir, and dancers all sharing one stage at the stunning State Theatre. An expression of faith, devotion, and pure artistry that moved me.”
Attack on Titan 💥
What a high-energy thrill it was to perform as the choir for Attack on Titan: Beyond the Walls World Tour at Playhouse Square. A small but mighty group of singers from CCC performed for a very enthusiastic crowd.
