“The GRAMMY® Award-winning vocal ensemble Chanticleer is known around the world as “an orchestra of voices” for its dazzling virtuosity and wide-ranging repertoire rooted in the renaissance, with continued expansion to include a wide range of classical, gospel, jazz, popular music, and a deep commitment to the commissioning of new compositions and arrangements. The Marie Rader Series is proud to present Chanticleer’s Music of a Silent World program, in which the ensemble sings the songs of the natural world and gives a voice to the otherwise voiceless rocks and stones and trees and rivers that share our planet with us. The program centers around a new arrangement of Majel Connery's The Rivers are our Brothers. “The goal,” she says, “is to give nature a voice. I wanted to allow these vibrant things to speak on their own behalf.” While inhabiting those voices, the program also explores what the world might be like without them. Repertoire includes music by William Byrd, Heinrich Isaac, and Robert Schumann, new arrangements of “Wildflowers” by Tom Petty and “The Weather” by Lawrence, and a new commission from Chanticleer’s composer in residence, Ayanna Woods. Runtime is 105 minutes with a 15 minute intermission."

Guided Premium Tastings
1:00-3:30pm, Auburn Road Vineyards, 117 Sharptown Road, Pilesgrove
“Our winemaker, Julianne, has long desired to create a unique tasting experience for the truly adventurous and curious wine drinker – the type of wine drinker who doesn’t want to be told what kind of wine to like but rather find out for themselves the only that one actually can – by getting out into vast wine world and trying it. So we created our Guided Premium Tastings, each month a new experience curated by the winemaker herself with a theme to provide a deep dive into a wine world that generally only winemakers live in. Allow our Guide to come to your table and lead you through a tasting of four distinctive and special wines, often from our Cellar including rare and unique wines not otherwise available for tasting. Our Guided Premium Tastings are scheduled regularly one weekend a month at $25 per person – make a reservation by clicking on the link below. Also available by appointment by contacting us at info@auburnroadvineyards.com at least one week before your visit at $35 per person."
