Jubilate! A Concert of Sacred Music presented by the Academy of Vocal Arts, is one of the most eagerly anticipated broadcasts each season. AVA’s award-winning resident artists visited three churches in the Philadelphia area last week to perform music of Mendelssohn, Mozart, Handel and more. And you can hear this program, Sunday from 3 to 5:30 pm on WRTI.
David Anthony Lofton is music director and conductor, and again leads this musical exploration of some of sacred music’s most beloved works, with the AVA Opera Orchestra. Join us! More about AVA
