The Maricopa Music Circle chamber orchestra and Maricopa Chorus community choir will take audiences on a musical journey across centuries May 2 with their Tapestry through Time Musicale.

The spring concert is set for 3 p.m. in the Redwood Room at the Maricopa Library & Cultural Center, marking a new venue for the longtime local ensembles.

The 90-minute program spans music from the Renaissance through modern day, blending orchestral and choral performances in a single showcase. Organizers say the setlist ranges from Tielman Susato’s Danse du Roy and Thomas Morley’s Why Weeps, Alas! to Franz Lehár’s Merry Widow Waltzes and George Gershwin’s My Ship, performed with chorus.

Audience favorites including Oh Happy Day and Leonard Cohen’s Hallelujah are also planned, along with new premieres drawn from film, children’s music and an original composition by chorus conductor Sarah Chaston.

The performance will feature a mix of instruments, voices and styles, including the group’s first attempt at “table music,” offering what organizers describe as a storytelling experience through sound.

Maricopa Music Circle, founded in 2010 by composer Judith Zaimont, performs without a conductor and adapts its instrumentation based on participating musicians. The Maricopa Chorus, launched in 2013 and led by Chaston, focuses on community choral performance and arts engagement.

The two groups regularly collaborate and continue to invite local musicians and singers to join, with a particular need for string players and alto and bass voices.

Tickets are $20 for adults and students age 5 and older, available at the door or online. Seating begins at 2:15 p.m.
