Haydn: Seven Last Words with Seraphic Fire

Seraphic Fire is a name impossible to miss these days, since the Miami-based chamber choir was nominated for two Grammys last year. The two ensembles are joining forces for Haydn’s Seven Last Words of Christ this Easter season, with a tour of South Florida that culminates in a performance at Chicago’s magnificent Rockefeller Chapel in Hyde Park. Whatever one’s spiritual persuasion, Haydn’s masterpiece creates a poignant, meditative space in which to ponder loss, hope and redemption.
