The Mary Green Chorale presents 'Serenade to Music' on Tuesday, November 9, 2021 at 7:30 pm at All Saints Episcopal Church, 3001 Meeting Street in Hilton Head Island.

Artistic Director Mary Woodmansee Green will lead the 40 members of the Chorale, accompanist Gerald Anderson, and professional instrumentalists, in the well-known and beloved composition, Ceremony of Carols by Benjamin Britten. The centerpiece of the concert is Ralph Vaughan Williams' beautiful and haunting Serenade to Music, based on adapted text about the music of spheres, beginning with "How sweet the moonlight sleeps upon this bank!" in William Shakespeare's The Merchant of Venice. The Chorale will also pay special tribute to several members of the Chorale, along with all those we lost during the pandemic when mourners could not gather in person to celebrate the lives of family and friends. Beethoven's moving Elegy, the presentation of the colors and the Navy Hymn for our lost veterans, Elgar's sublime Lux Aeterna from his Enigma Variations, the spiritual Aina that Good News! and the premier of Karen Ball's Go in Peace will complete this special concert.
