Vivaldi's Gloria - complete virtual performance

San Jose Symphonic Choir and Cal Arte Ensemble in a virtual performance created during the Covid-19 pandemic with singers and instrumentalists each recording individually at home. SJSC is directed by Leroy Kromm and Cal Arte Ensemble by Tamami Honma and Julian Brown. The Gloria, one of Vivaldi’s most uplifting works, provides a sublime musical setting to an ancient liturgical text. The text of the Gloria begins with one of the more theatrical passages of the Bible, the angel’s announcement of the Nativity to the shepherds: “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to men of good will”. Vivaldi’s portrays this moment with a bold orchestral statement: resounding trumpet calls and ecstatic octave leaps invoking the heavenly host, and a wall of sound from the chorus. The following movements provide contemplation, solos both joyous and pleading, and jewel-like moments of intertwined instrumental and choral forces. This performance began with piano tracks recorded by Maestro Leroy Kromm. Singers and instrumentalists then each recorded themselves at home while listening to these tracks. The resulting individual recordings were compiled by chief video creator Julian Brown to achieve the sound of musicians performing together, as we fervently wish we were. Featuring: Michelle Cipollone, soprano Cathy Yin, soprano Liliane Cromer, mezzo-soprano Cal Arte Ensemble Julian Brown, violins & viola Yulia Fomicheva, cello, Kelly Beecher, bass Genevieve Kromm, trumpet Tamami Honma, harpsichord
