FROM THE ARTISTIC D IRECTOR

Good evening and welcome to our season-opening concert, “With Friends.” The Waukesha Choral Union is thrilled to present our

annual collaboration concert, this year featuring the Children’s Choir of Waukesha and the Muskego High School Chorale.

I am humbled and honored to be presenting this concert and season as the new artistic director of the Waukesha

Choral Union. I am very fortunate to have a wonderful group of board members and singing members to work with, and they have made the transition-process quite easy to manage. Honestly, the greatest challenge (so far) has been booking concert venues. We are very grateful to St. William for allowing us to perform here this evening. We will return St. Catherine’s in Oconomowoc and St. Luke’s in Waukesha, for our annual December concerts, and then to Carroll College in April for the “Messiah,” and also our season-ending event in May.

Our season-long theme of “How Can I Keep from Singing” will continue in December with Christmas arrangements and a few seasonal sing-a-long carols, but will also feature some motets and madrigals that will be new to some ears. Handel’s “Messiah” will return us to Shattuck on April 3 and then we will close our season with Folksongs of the Americas (folk music from North, Central and South America) – as well as Gabriel Faure’s masterpiece: Requiem.

Thank you for your continuing support of the arts in your community. We cannot do what we do without you and your generous patronage.

Michael Chapel, Artistic Director

Credo[Credo in unum Deum]Patrem omnipotentem,factorem coeli et terrae,visibilium omnium, et invisibilium.

Et in unum Dominum Jesum Christum,Filium Dei unigenitum.Et ex Patre natum ante omnia sæcula.Deum de Deo, lumen de lumine,Deum verum de Deo vero.Genitum, non factum,consubstantialem Patri:per quem omnia facta sunt.Qui propter nos homines,et propter nostram salutemdescendit de coelis.Et incarnatus est de Spiritu Sanctoex Maria Virgine. Et homo factus est.

Crucifixus etiam pro nobissub Pontio Pilato,passus et sepultus est.Et resurrexit tertia diesecundum Scripturas.Et ascendit in coelum:sedet ad dexteram Patris.Et iterum venturus est cum gloria,judicare vivos et mortuos:cujus regni non erit finis.

Et in Spiritum Sanctum,Dominum, et vivificantem:qui ex Patre Filioque procedit.Qui cum Patre et Filio simuladoratur et conglorificatur:qui locutus est per Prophetas.Et unam sanctam catholicamet apostolicam Ecclesiam.

Confiteor unum baptisma,in remissionem peccatorum.Et expecto resurrectionem mortuorum,et vitam venturi sæculi. Amen.

[I believe in one God]The Father almighty,maker of heaven and earth,and of all things visible and invisible.

And I believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ,the only begotten Son of God.And born of the Father before all ages.God from God, Light from Light,True God from true God.Begotten, not made,of one substance with the Father:by whom all things were made.Who for us and for our salvationdescended from heaven.And was incarnate by the Holy Spiritof the Virgin Mary. And was made man.

Crucified also for usunder Pontius Pilate,he suffered, and was buried.And on the third day he rose again according to the Scriptures.He ascended into heaven andhe sits at the right hand of the Father.He shall come again with gloryto judge the living and the dead;and of his kingdom there will be no end.

And I believe in the Holy Spirit,the Lord and giver of life,who proceeds from the Father and the Son.Who together with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified,who spoke to us through the Prophets.And I believe in one holy catholicand apostolic Church.

I confess one baptismfor the remission of sins.And I await the resurrection of the dead,and the life of the world to come. Amen.
