Acclaimed Chicago a cappella chamber chorus Bella Voce kicks off its 30th-anniversary season with a concert of masterworks from William Byrd and Frank Ferko. Renaissance period composer Byrd's Mass for Four Voices weaves together elements of the early Tudor Mass with strong continental influences. Contemporary American composer Ferko's complex and luminous Stabat Mater is acclaimed the world over for its telling of the Sorrows of Mary. Composed for Bella Voce under the name His Majestie's Clerkes, this masterwork was called by the Chicago Tribune a "marvelously intricate and sincerely devout tour de force that showed off ... disciplined, sensitive, and uncommonly nuanced singing." Internationally renowned soprano Patrice Michaels will perform as featured soloist at this performance.

See one of the greatest films of the silent era, scored live in concert by famous organist Cameron Carpenter, when Davies Symphony Hall hosts a screening of Battleship Potemkin. Director Sergei Eisenstein's revolutionary 1925 drama, which tells the true story of a Russian battleship crew's 1905 mutiny, introduced exciting concepts of montage to the international film scene, and was named the greatest film of all time at the 1958 Brussels World's Fair. The famed "Odessa Steps" sequence is one of the most acclaimed and influential scenes in film history. Carpenter, the first organist ever to receive a Grammy nomination in the Best Solo Instrumental Performance category, is renowned for his superhuman organ technique and flamboyant style. Learn More
