Item Description
The Capitol Hill Chorale has taken a leading role in researching and performing Georgian Sacred Chants on the Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom by the "father or Georgian classical music," Zakaria Paliashvili (1871-1933). The Chorale used its own performing edition, which was created from the original 1909 score and recorded in 2014 at St. Joseph's Church on Capitol Hill, the first recording of this piece in the Georgian language.
Item Special Note
In 2015-2016, the Capitol Hill Chorale celebrates its 23rd season of concerts in Washington D.C., having presented over 60 programs of choral music since its first program in December 1993. Frederick Binkholder has served as the Chorale's Artistic Director for 15 years, bringing to the group innovative programming and high musical standards. Highlights of Fred’s programming have included a concert of German Lieder in memory of Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau, Handel's Messiah as arranged by Mozart, settings of the Orthodox Divine Liturgy by Serbian, Georgian and Russian composers, programs of choral jazz with the David Jellema Quintet, and collaborations with the Capital City Symphony, Washington Saxophone Quartet and Jacqueline Horner-Kwiatek (of the vocal ensemble Anonymous 4). After premiering a number of his works, the Chorale announced in 2014 its affiliation with Boston-based composer Kevin Siegfried as Composer-in-Residence.
