Concert Review: Magnificat! (The Georgia Straight)

Magnificat!
Saturday December 5, 1998
Christ Church Cathedral

Directed with terrific zest and sensitivity by Diane Loomer, the forces at her command, the all-male Chor Leoni, the Elektra Women's Choir, and members of the CBC Vancouver Orchestra, along with mezzo-soprano Mariateresa Magisano, soprano Lambroula Maria Pappas, and tenor Bruce Hoffman as the three remarkable soloists rose to the very gates of heaven. If they had been any more celestial, those gates might have opened to welcome them in as permanent residents.

[of Respighi's Lauda per la Natività del Signore]
