"An Oratorio singers slate concert for April 14 Music by Brahms and Bruckner will be performed by the New Oratorio Singers on Sunday, April 14, at 5:30 p.m. at Grace Lutheran Church in Woodstock. The contemporary church setting provides interesting counterpoint to the emotional, romantic richness of the music. Bruckner's "Mass No. 3 in F minor," a difficult work, was declared unsingable by his contemporaries, who became devotees after hearing it per­ formed. Poetry by Goethe, full of pathos and introspection, inspired Brahms' "Alto Rhapsody," for alto, orchestra and men's chorus. Thomas Wikman, founding conductor of The New Oratorio Singers in 1979, has a com­ mittment to provide exposure to grand choral works for singers and audience alike in the nor­ thern Illinois area. Members of the chorus come from 30 com­ munities, in a 50-mile radius of Chicago. Karen Brunssen, mezzo- soprano, has returned to sing with The New Oratorio Singers. Past appearances have included "Elijah" and the Verdi "Requiem," as well as concerts with the Elgin Symphony, the Milwaukee Symphony, and the St. Louis Symphony. Ms. Brunssen teaches voice at Concordia College in River Forest. Reserved tickets are available by calling (815) 338-4205 or (312) 381-5625. Ticket prices are $15 and $20.
