CAE is excited to open its 54th season with the music of internationally-renowned composer — and Portland’s own — Sydney Guillaume. Originally from Port-au-Prince, Haiti, his intricate, challenging and highly spirited music has been praised for its “impressive maturity and striking melodic distinction.” With many texts written by his father, Sydney Guillaume’s compositions promote human values and are full of heart and passion. His compositions continually enthrall choirs everywhere and have been performed around the world. CAE is pleased to once again welcome special guests The Linn Benton Community College Chamber Choir, under the direction of Raymund Ocampo, for these concerts.
Tickets now available at the door only.

CAE closes its 54th season with one of the most moving and beloved works of choral music ever written – Gabriel Fauré’s Requiem. Fauré’s contemplative setting will be especially poignant in the beautiful and acoustically-rich confines of St. Philip Neri. The concerts will also feature additional inspiring works by Fauré, Allegri and others that will leave the soul refreshed and uplifted.
Please join us for a wine-tasting fundraiser and reception in Carvlin Hall on the St. Philip Neri campus after the Saturday concert.
