“We strive for the unconventional,” notes executive director John Wilkens. “What puts us in a different category is the way we try to convey a sense of the season, but without any triteness.” So from the moment the choir files into the concert hall, chanting in the transcendent polyphony of medieval times, through a thoughtful repertoire of old and modern compositions, to the program-ending dusting of traditional carols, you’ll be thoroughly entertained.
Ars Nova performs tonight at 7:30 p.m. at Bethany Lutheran Church, 4500 East Hampden Avenue in Cherry Hills Village; and again tomorrow at 7:30 p.m. at St. John's Episcopal Church, 1419 Pine Street in Boulder; for tickets, $5 to $20, log on to www.arsnovasingers.org or call 303-499-3165.
