Missa Fragmentata and Other Holiday Music
The Claremont Chamber Choir will perform its annual holiday celebration. The choir, part of the Joint Music Program of Claremont McKenna, Harvey Mudd, Pitzer, and Scripps Colleges, is an auditioned, mixed ensemble of 20 students and will be led by guest conductor David Rentz, associate professor of music at Chaffey College and music director of the Orange County Symphony.
The program will include a Missa fragmentata consisting of a cappella Mass movements and motets from the Middle Ages to the 20th century, as well as holiday favorites. Audio clips of the choir's previous performances are available online. A complete playbill will be available at the concert.
Please note that we will be collecting toys for the Center for Community Engagement’s holiday toy drive to benefit patients at Loma Linda Children’s Hospital. Unwrapped toys will be collected in the Athenaeum lobby before the dinner. Gift cards also welcome. Bringing holiday cheer to those in need is an important part of CMC’s outreach to the community. We thank you for your support.
