Sing-along with some the masterworks of choral music on the VPR Choral Hour.

There's much to celebrate on the VPR Choral Hour this week: Passover, Easter, and Earth Day - and we'll have three singalongs!

On Sunday, April 17th, VPR Classical’s Choral Hour sing-along includes Vivaldi's setting of Psalm 114, Songs by Mendelssohn to help celebrate Earth Day, and for Easter, Worthy is the Lamb and the Great Amen from Handel's "Messiah." Dig out your copies or download the public domain sheet music for free here...

We’ll also enjoy music for Passover by Italian Renaissance composer Salamone Rossi, and Erich Wolfgang Korngold, and American composer Morten Lauridsen's beautiful work for Easter, Lux Aeterna.
