Bartlesville Choral Society
The Bartlesville Choral Society is a 70-voice Community Chorus that has been a vibrant part of the Northeast Oklahoma arts scene since 1976. The society presents 3 concerts a year, showcasing a wide variety of music from large classical works such as our bi-annual presentation of Handel’s Messiah to programs of shorter varied choral works to pops concerts.
Requiem, Gabriel Fauré
Saturday, November 5, 7:30 p.m.
Taking as its theme both memorial and renewal following the tenth anniversary of the 9-11 attacks, the Choral Society will present music that expresses both the sorrow of the occasion and the hope that continues to lift our nation. Additional pieces include two from Testament of Freedom, Kyrie from “Memorial” and Five Songs of Faith written “In Tribute to the American Spirit”.
Handel’s Messiah

Let’s go to the Movies
