Saturday, November 23, 2024 2:30–4:00 PM
  • Location
    DeBartolo Performing Arts Center
  • Description
    Sacred Music Notre Dame, the Singing Irish of Sacred Music at Notre Dame, members from the Notre Dame Children's Liturgical Choir, and the Sacred Music Festival Orchestra perform Haydn's <em>The Creation</em> (1798). Drawing from the books of Genesis, Psalms, and John Milton's epic <em>Paradise Lost</em> to represent the six days of creation, Haydn was inspired to compose his first oratorio, now an iconic Western masterwork, after a Handel festival including <em>Messiah</em>. His colorful, imaginative, and tremendously satisfying choruses are favorites among choral singers and music lovers.<br><a href="https://performingarts.nd.edu/event/17096/haydns-the-creation/">GET TICKETS</a><br> <br><a href="https://events.nd.edu/events/2024/11/23/haydns-the-creation/">https://events.nd.edu/events/2024/11/23/haydns-the-creation/</a>
