Synopsis
From cathedralesque grandeur to ethereal beauty to fearsome spectacle - how many ways can Halloween come alive in music? The SSO Organ Series's popular Halloween night returns again with music across the ages - heavenly prayers, mighty pipe organ toccatas and eerie nocturnes. The Singapore Symphony Chorus lends its voices to a selection of Gregorian chant, stormy lied and frantic pleas to fickle Fortune, ending with Choral Director Eudenice Palaruan's Caña.
