Durufl‚ And Brahms

A spring concert on Sunday by the 80-member Choral Society of the Hamptons will feature the music of Maurice Durufl‚ and Johannes Brahms.

One of the day's choices will be Durufl‚'s Requiem. Considered the finest and most popular work of the 20th-century French organist and composer, the piece uses Gregorian melodies and harmonies. The Brahms Motet (Op.74) will be sung a cappella.

Christopher Schaldenbrand, who recently performed the Requiem at Alice Tully Hall at Lincoln Center, will be baritone soloist. Mary Ann Hart, a music professor at Vassar College and the Mannes School of Music who has performed with a number of city symphonies, will serve as mezzo-soprano. David Gifford, an accompanist for the New York Choral Society, will play the organ.

The Choral Society of the Hamptons, which has reached its 50th birthday this year, performs three concerts a year. Its musical director is John Daly Goodwin, who also directs the New York Choral Society and the Westchester Concert Singers. The concert will start at 4 p.m. at the East Hampton Presbyterian Church. Tickets will be available at the church door on Sunday.
