SPECIAL WORSHIP SERVICE
Choral Presentation at the Briarcliff Congregational Church
Featuring Vivaldi’s Magnificat in G Minor (RV 610)
December 20, 2026, 10:00 AM
Join us this Advent season as Music Director Daniel Leguizamon leads the Briarcliff Congregational Church Chancel Choir and SUNY Purchase Student Ensemble in Antonio Vivaldi’s vibrant Magnificat in G minor at our regularly scheduled worship service on Sunday, December 20th.
This Magnificat is a masterclass in Baroque splendor and dramatic contrast. Rather than sprawling across a massive canvas, Vivaldi packs remarkable emotional range into a concise, radiant score. While Mary’s Song (“My soul magnifies the Lord”) is often imagined as a quiet, gentle lullaby, Vivaldi offers a striking and refreshing alternative.
Composed for his conservatory in Venice, this masterpiece captures the bold, fiery joy and dramatic energy within Mary’s words. Moving swiftly from mysterious, hushed chords to exuberant celebration, Vivaldi brings extraordinary warmth and vitality to this timeless text.
Just as a magnifying glass makes small things visible, Mary’s song invites us to let our everyday lives—our gratitude, our resilience, and our joy—bring God’s love into clearer focus for the world around us. Come experience this timeless text through Vivaldi’s vibrant eyes, and let this energetic collaboration lift your spirits for the season. Bring your family and friends!
Join us for the 2026 Fall season and discover the beauty within!
