Known for their a capella prowess, the accomplished singers of the Syracuse Vocal Ensemble cross musical boundaries to perform a new work called “The World Beloved: A Bluegrass Mass.” “This work combines the solemnity of a classical-based mass with the down-home sparkle of bluegrass,” says Minneapolis-based composer Carol Barnett. For the performance, the popular vocal group has gathered some of Central New York’s finest bluegrass musicians: Joe Davoli on fiddle, Nick Piccininni on banjo, Perry Cleaveland on mandolin (pictured), John Cadley on guitar and Zach Fleitz on bass. They also add ballad soloist Maureen Henesey.
Building the festive spirit, the concert also will include choral arrangements of Appalachian tunes, a traditional instrumental bluegrass set and a special appearance by the Syracuse Country Dancers led by caller Bob Nicholson. Audience members will have their turn on the dance floor after the concert, with an invitation to learn a country dance.
