SUNDAYS PERFORMANCE OF THE RQUIEM IS SOLD OUT . THERE WILL BE NO TICKETS AVAILABLE AT THE DOOR

Over 90 voices and orchestra perform the incomparable Mozart Requiem. Also on the program selections from Mozart's Benedictus sit Deus.    Mozart’s Requiem has been a staple of the choral repertoire since its first publication in July 1800. It has the drama and humanity of his stage masterpieces. His operas wrestle with the beauty and complexity of being alive in the same way his Requiem grapples with the mystery of death. Composed by a man on the edge of consciousness, Mozart willed his last creation into life with his final breaths. Mozart’s attention to text is what makes his operas so glorious. The Requiem loses none of this magic touch. He takes text made over-familiar to Catholic believers and infuses it with emotion and his own point of view. Join us for what will surely be another memorable performance by the fastest growing and Oldest choral Society in NH conducted by Dr. Alex T. Favazza Jr. , Director of Choral activities at UNH

Saturday advance tickets will be available from a member  or  online and will be available at the door

 Sunday tickets are available online ONLY and may not be available at the door due to capacity 

Rockingham Choral Society is supported in part by a grant from the New Hampshire State Council on the Arts & the National Endowment for the Arts

RCS has only a few fund raising activities each year,and the bulk of our operating budget comes from our annual program advertisements and sponsorship campaigns.

COVID-19 Update --- Rockingham Choral Society Returns !!!!!!

  

  

Dear Friends, members and potential members of Rockingham Choral Society

  

The RCS board met and had a good discussion about the state of where we are at with COVID masking and protocols both at rehearsals and our upcoming concerts in May. The time had come to attempt to determine the circumstances that would permit us to take the next step back to more normal rehearsals and performances.  


After considering all points of view and reviewing a lot of current information, we decided to alter our policy effective immediately to “masks optional” at both rehearsals and our performances (provided the venues we perform and rehearse at do not have more restrictive protocols).  Here’s what we mean by this, masks will not be required at rehearsals or concerts but you may wear one if you choose. In fact, if you consider yourself in at elevated risk you should wear a mask. 

We will also be asking our members and audience to practice social distancing as much as possible at rehearsals and at our performances. We also still expect and strongly encourage all our members to be fully up to date with vaccinations even though we will not be checking vaccination cards. 

Currently our performance venues have also updated their policies to the same optional policy. Should anything change to any of these policies, we will publish it here on our website and also on our Facebook page. 

 Here is exactly what is on the CDC website “People may choose to mask at any time. People with symptoms, a positive test, or exposure to someone with COVID-19 should wear a mask. If you are immunocompromised or high risk for severe disease, learn more about how to protect yourself.”

 Now obviously it says if you have COVID 19 wear a mask, but I would also add please don’t come to rehearsal. In fact, you are feeling ill at all, we would respectfully ask that you not attend and focus on getting well.  Rockingham County is currently in the CDC LOW category status, which is their lowest. The CDC also recommends staying up to date with vaccinations and get tested if you have any symptoms. If you would like to read more, here is the link https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/your-health/covid-by-county.html For information on what medical conditions increase your risk of severe COVID see: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/need-extra-precautions/people-with-medical-conditions.html. Also , keep in mind , should the situation take a turn in the wrong direction, we  may need to change our policy, but for now masks will no longer be required, but you may choose to wear one anyway. This is simply the next step as we continue our journey and hope to put this all behind us and we feel now is the time to take that next step. 


Since 1957, the Rockingham Choral Society has expanded and enhanced cultural experiences by performing choral masterpieces and adhering to the highest musical standards. The group, which is open to singers age 16 and older, is currently comprised of approximately 95 members from southern Maine to northern Massachusetts, representing all of NH’s Rockingham County as well as all walks of life and age groups.
