SUMMARY:Celebrate Voices of Freedom and Resilience with NHSO
DESCRIPTION:Experience one of the greatest American choral works of all time\, American composer Robert Nathaniel Dett’s The Ordering of Moses\, performed by hundreds of combined voices from the Fairfield County Chorale\, Heritage Chorale of New Haven\, and New Haven Chorale. \nFrom Music Director Perry So:\n“Finally after almost a century this great work is starting to receive its due. The Ordering of Moses was never forgotten – church choirs\, community groups and others have kept the piece in our ears – but the first performance at Carnegie was only in 2014\, and the British premiere in 2022. What remarkable sound worlds are contained in the piece: lush late-Romanticism with echoes of Wagner and Elgar\, but as a context for the immediacy of the African-American spiritual that sounds stark and timeless. The sound of actual chains being pulled emanate from the orchestra against harmonies that dissolve into suggestions of near-Eastern scales. All in the service of the story and the emotion contained at the core of the work – a young Moses discovering his calling to lead his people out of slavery\, perhaps the most eloquent musical cry against oppression in the American tradition.” \nRobert Nathaniel Dett The Ordering of Moses\nJames Weldon Johnson Lift Every Voice and Sing\nFela Sowande Go Down Moses\nFlorence Price Finale from Sonata No. 1\nCarl Haywood We Shall Overcome \nPrelude: Pre-Concert Talk\nSunday\, February 9\, 2025 • 2PM • Woolsey Hall\nConcert ticketholders are encouraged to attend this 30-minute pre-concert talk about The Ordering of Moses hosted by organist Nathaniel Gumbs. \nClick for tickets and to learn more.

SUMMARY:Essex Ed Parade
DESCRIPTION:WHO WILL BE ESSEX ED IN 2025? Find out at the Essex Ed Parade on Sunday\, February 2nd at 2 pm! \nEssex Ed will make his big reveal on Sunday\, February 2nd at 2 pm\, when he emerges from Essex Boat Works for his annual procession up Main Street in Essex Village. \nEvery year in celebration of Groundhog Day\, a community organization dresses Essex Ed – a twelve-foot paper mache version of a groundhog – in a costume that recognizes a person or special occasion. That organization and costume remain top secret until Essex Ed appears for his journey and to his place of honor at the roundabout on the top of Main Street. \nThe Essex Ed tradition was born in 1978\, thanks to resident Mary Ellen Brophy\, when out of boredom she and her friends decided to interject some fun into what was an extremely cold and unpleasant winter. Without securing town approval\, Mary Ellen referred to Essex Ed’s surprise appearance at the Essex Square roundabout on Groundhog Day as “creative vandalism – a way to get everybody outside for some silly\, winter fun.” \n47 years later\, the winter festivity continues. Essex Ed has become a bit of a “celebrity groundhog\,” attracting Groundhog Day lovers from far and wide\, who rejoice by wearing groundhog hats and banging traditional noisemakers – pots\, lids\, spoons\, and trumpets. The Griswold Inn serves popcorn and hot chocolate for parade goers\, just as it’s done since day #1! \nThe parade takes place rain\, snow\, or SHINE!
