Soprello, a musical collaboration between soprano Allison Pohl and cellist Alistair MacRae, explore the connections between vibrating strings and the human voice.  In the interaction between these instruments, Soprello aims to engage audiences with music new and old, both specific to its instrumentation and inventively repurposed. Building on live and radio performances in New York, New Jersey, North Carolina, Washington, and Ontario, Allison and Alistair have worked to create a new repertoire for their combination, spanning over 300 years of musical history. Soprello has given premiere performances of new works by Stephen Gerber, David Dzubay, and Rick Sowash, and will be premiering a new arrangement of the Bach/Gounod Ave Maria by Dr. Michael Fennelly.

Veteran te the Metropolitan Opera, tenor Gregory Lorenz will premiere a new arrangement by Dr. Michael Fennelly for string sextet  of Six Songs from  A Shropshire Lad by George Butterworth.  In addition, Dr. Fennelly conducts the Metamorphosis Chamber Orchestra in Arnold Schoenberg's intensely romantic Verklärte Nacht ("Transfigured Night") inspired by the poem by Richard Dehmel.  The program includes  songs by Duparc and Messiaen's mystical duet "La mort du nombre" with soprano Megan Weston.   Gregory Lorenz is known for his vivid interpretations of repertoire from all periods. Recent appearances have focused on concert performances of Mozart’s operas, with the Pacific Symphony, Opera Camerata in Washington, DC, and the Piccolo Spoleto Festival.
