On Saturday, June 11, at 8 pm, Cantata Singers celebrated Music Director Emeritus David Hoose and his unparalleled legacy in Boston’s musical landscape. In a far-reaching program featuring some of the choral-orchestral repertoire’s giants, David conducted this concert which presents the quintessential Cantata Singers under his direction. Haydn and Vaughan Williams’ visions of war and, ultimately, calls for peace highlight a program you won’t soon forget.
