      <image:title>Events - 2025 | Au Coeur de Notre Terre</image:title>
      <image:caption>Admission is free, with tickets reserved through Virgin Ticketing Box Office. December 2025 marks a historic double celebration: the 150th anniversary of USJ and the 10th anniversary of the USJ Choir. To honor the meeting of these two legacies, we are immensely proud to unveil, in a world premiere, our very first commissioned work: “Au Coeur de Notre Terre”, an Oratorio for USJ. This vibrant tribute serves as a heartfelt homage to this iconic institution, which has been the very soul of the USJ Choir. Now famous for its bold repertoire that marries classical music with an eclectic array of genres (Jazz, Rock, World Music), the USJ Choir continues its mission: to push its own limits, champion new creation and promote Lebanese composers. Composed by the talented Lucas Sakr on words by a collective of passionate USJ professors, this Oratorio is a stunning fusion, bringing together Western choral traditions and oriental rhythms and instruments, all integrated with contemporary harmonies. You will also recognize traditional Maronite melodies inserted into the texture through an orchestral language that explores new soundscapes crafted specially for this work. The Oratorio also explores exciting new ways to integrate the quarter tone into the rich harmonic language of the piece, truly pushing the boundaries of harmony.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Events - 2024 | the sacred music of poulenc</image:title>
      <image:caption>Tickets can be purchased from the Virgin Ticketing Box Office, at Virgin Megastores, or online via this link. In celebration of Saint-Joseph University’s 150th anniversary, the USJ Choir will present a unique program featuring one of the biggest icons of 20th century music: Francis Poulenc.  His style features a unique duality between his deep faith, and a strong sense of fun and fantaisy. Poulenc wrote his Stabat Mater, a hauntingly passionate work, after visiting the sacred shrine of the Black Madonna of Rocamadour, a journey tjay has profoundly changed his life and work as a composer. He once told an interviewer that he had put ‘the best and most genuine part of myself’ into his sacred music. The Gloria, on the other hand, displays unmistakable freshness and vivacity.  What sets Poulenc apart is his ability to create music that is simultaneously playful and profound, light-hearted and deeply emotional. His melodies often possess a charming simplicity, yet beneath the surface lies a complexity that engages both the mind and the heart. Poulenc's harmonic language features unexpected twists and turns, creating a sense of surprise and intrigue for the listener. Additionally, his use of dissonance and unconventional tonal colorings adds a touch of modernism to his compositions. Overall, Poulenc's musical style is characterized by its versatility, wit, and impeccable craftsmanship, making him a truly distinctive figure in 20th-century music.

      <image:title>Events - 2024 | COLORS OF INDIA</image:title>
      <image:caption>Brace yourselves and be ready to be blown away with “Colors of India”, a concert of crossover music between Indian and Western styles to promote peace, dialogue, and innovation! This concert will feature unique crossover music between Indian and Western classical styles to promote peace, dialogue, and innovation! The program will include Reena Esmail’s new composition “This Love Between Us” as well as the greatest movie hits of Oscar-Winning Composer AR Rahman, re-arranged uniquely for Choir and Orchestra. The USJ Choir will perform alongside Grammy-recognized Sitarist Asad Khan and Tabla player Sahil Khan coming all the way from India. PROGRAM: Part 1 | Reena Esmail, This Love Between Us This Love Between Us is a piece about unity. Its seven movements juxtapose the words of seven major religious traditions of India (Buddhism, Sikhism, Christianity, Zoroastrianism, Hinduism, Jainism and Islam), and specifically how each of these traditions approaches the topic of unity, of brotherhood, of being kind to one another. The text is set simultaneously in English and in its original language. Each movement also contains a unique combination of Indian and Western classical styles, running the continuum from the Christian movement, which is rooted firmly in a baroque style, to the Zoroastrian movement, which is a Hindustani vilambit bandish. Each of the other movements live somewhere in between these two musical cultures in their techniques, styles and forms. But even more than uniting musical practices, this piece unites people from two different musical traditions: a sitar and tabla join the choir and baroque orchestra. Each of the musicians is asked to keep one hand firmly rooted in their own tradition and training, while reaching the other hand outward to greet another musical culture. Part 2 | Greatest movie hits by Oscar-Winning Composer AR Rahman A.R. Rahman has completed over 100 film scores since 1992. His soundtracks have sold more than 300 million copies worldwide, making him one of the best-selling recording artists of all time. He has won fourteen of India's Filmfare awards (the equivalent of the American Oscar) for his music, and his first two Academy Awards and Grammy Awards in 2008 for the music for the British movie Slumdog Millionaire which includes the song "Jai Ho". We will be performing some of his greatest movie hits, with our own unique arrangements for choir and orchestra!</image:caption>

      <image:title>Events - 2023 | Beethoven: Missa solemnis</image:title>
      <image:caption>“From the heart—may it again—go to the heart!” Beethoven inscribed these words in the manuscript of his mighty Missa solemnis, one of his last and largest compositions. His initial motivation was to honor his friend, student, and patron, Archduke Rudolph, who was to be installed as Archbishop of Olmütz in March 1820. But the project grew in proportions and Beethoven missed the deadline by several years. He added that the Missa solemnis is the “greatest work I have composed so far.” Even allowing for the facts that Beethoven was telling this to a publisher and that in 1822 he had not yet composed the Ninth Symphony and the last string quartets, his declaration must be taken seriously. The Mass is Beethoven’s largest and longest composition (except for the opera Fidelio), and yet at times also one of his most intimate and personal. He inscribed in the manuscript: “From the heart—may it go to the heart!” Its gestation took more than four years and came at a crucial juncture in Beethoven’s career. As the aging and deaf composer increasingly withdrew from society, he created a musical testimony that is one of the supreme expressions of personal belief.</image:caption>

It is a celebratory and visionary work, expressing unity between people, their faiths and above all, their music. African Sanctus is an unorthodox setting of the Latin Mass harmonized with traditional African music recorded by the composer on his now legendary journeys up the River Nile (1969-73). The taped music from Egypt, Sudan, Uganda and Kenya is heard in counterpoint with the live chorus, soprano soloist and instrumental ensemble. The work is composed of 13 movements and reflects geographically the composer’s cross-shaped pilgrimage, from the Mediterranean to Lake Victoria, whereby Kyrie represents Cairo and Sanctus Northern Uganda. This wonderful work juxtaposes multimedia, ethnic instruments, and choral singing united for a message of love and peace.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Grant Us Peace is a concert tribute to those we lost to war, killings and injustice. The center piece of our program features Vaughan William’s Dona Nobis Pacem — Latin for “grant us peace”— a mesmerizing piece that combines poems by Walt Whitman, a speech to British Parliament, and passages from the bible. This work is a cry for peace, in which the composer takes us on a journey from the horrors of war to a universal plea for world peace, all messages pertinent and vital in today’s Lebanon. While it was written as a warning before World War II and a plea not to repeat the carnage of previous wars, its message of harmony and reconciliation amidst chaos and violence is what we need most during these uncertain and difficult times. Lebanon has endured a bloody and violent 15-year civil war and a series of violent events leading to the August-4 explosion. Though our bloody past has not been forgotten, and while peace may still be far, we have no choice but to dream for it. The recurring prayer “grant us peace” haunts the entire work, finally triumphing over the terrors of war which are explicitly described in Whitman’s poems. The second part of the program features choral works by French composer Gabriel Fauré - set on the words of big French poets and writers like Victor Hugo, Robert de Montesquiou and Armand Silvestre – carrying on with the message that love is truly what we need.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Events - 2022 | HAYDN, Cäcilienmesse</image:title>
      <image:caption>Known as the “Father of the Symphony” and considered one of the legendary “Viennese Classical Trinity” alongside his friend Mozart and his pupil Beethoven, Joseph Haydn is one of the most prominent and important composers of Viennese classicism. After his promotion to Kapellmeister at the Esterházy court, Haydn began composing his most extensive sacred work, the monumental Missa Cellensis in honorem Beatissimæ Virginis Mariæ (Mass for Mariazell in honour of the Blessed Virgin Mary), rising to take its place alongside the most notable and important liturgical compositions of the Viennese tradition.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Events - 2021 | Misatango</image:title>
      <image:caption>The Chœur de l'USJ and the JML Orchestra, under the baton of Yasmina Sabbah, are thrilled to kick off the festive season with a sensational tango program featuring the Lebanese premiere of MisaTango by Argentine composer Martín Palmeri. This composition is a daring mix of sacred music (sometimes reminiscent of baroque polyphony) and tango! All the ordinary of the Mass (Kyrie, Gloria, Credo, Sanctus, Agnus Dei) is sung, but with a syncopated and energetic dance groove. The work features the bandoneon, the emblematic instrument of tango, performed by our guest Italian musician Pasquale Lancuba. The symbiosis between sacred music and Latin American tones and the unconventional combination of "Tango" rhythms and classicism creates unique music full of passion and intense emotions.</image:caption>

Writing to his librettist, the journalist Harold Child, in 1910, he said: “I have an idea for an opera written to real English words, with a certain amount of real English music”. This idea of vernacular is carried our in Elgar’s “From the Bavarian Highlands” which consists of six poems, written by his wife Alice, depicting a place they had visited on holiday in southern Germany.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>In these troubling and difficult times that our country is going through, we feel it is of the highest importance to sing for peace and fraternity. Through this performance, we pay tribute to the Lebanese brothers and sisters we lost to decades of war, killings, and injustice. May we use the remembrance of what we have endured to learn from out mistakes and keep climbing to a brighter peaceful future. The program features Vaughan William’s Dona Nobis Pacem and works by Gabriel Fauré.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Gallery - The Armed Man, A Mass for Peace | May 2018 - THE ARMED MAN, A MASS FOR PEACE</image:title>
      <image:caption>We are gathered tonight to sing for peace. Lebanon, the middle east and the world have been suffering for too long from the consequences of war, death and hate. This concert - gathering singers and musicians from different religions, nationalities and cultures – is a gift and a message of love, unity, coexistence and peace. The richness and beauty of music stems from the difference of forces on the stage, the large palette of timbres, and especially from the power of being united, and singing as one. We dream that our country will treasure our differences, and live in harmony. The Armed Man charts the growing menace of a descent into war, interspersed with moments of reflection; shows the horrors that war brings; and ends with the hope for peace in a new millennium, when sorrow, pain and death can be overcome.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>This concert features extracts of two masses by Czech composer Zelenka: Missa Omnium Sanctorum, ZWV 21 and Missa sanctissimae trinitatis, ZWV 17. It is in the choir's mission to perform obscure pieces and introduce them to the public and we are thrilled to have presented this premiere in Lebanon. This concert is dedicated to the heroes that have placed their lives and livelihoods at risk to ensure our health and safety. Healthcare workers have been on the front lines for a long time, working tirelessly to take care of COVID patients and saving lives after the August explosion that shook our country. Because of their sacrifices and heroism, we are able to stand strong. Because of them, we are still here, and because of them, we are able to sing and give back what we can in gratitude and appreciation. Through this concert we were able to raise 70,000,000 LBP for the healthcare workers of Hotel Dieu Hospital.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>In these challenging times, we proudly stand in solidarity with Lebanon and actively help our community by raising funds through music. "There Will Always Be Light", featuring Mozart's immortal Requiem, is a fundraising concert for the Lebanese Food Bank - a non-profit organization which fights to overcome hunger by developing effective feeding programs. We were able to raise more than 10,000 USD which helped feed more than 500 families throughout the country. Mozart’s Requiem is one the most important masterpieces of Choral Music! Though Mozart could not complete his Requiem because of his fatal illness, his music has managed to survive despite all the mystery of its completion. We can survive anything, because greatness will always triumph! Performing this immortal masterpiece that has survived centuries and conquered the globe by its beauty, is a reminder that we can get through these difficult times together!</image:caption>

More than 3,000 lighting fixtures, 1,000 speakers, 1,300 costumes and buckets of passion and emotion from every one of the 1,000-plus participating performers and volunteers also contributed to a one-of-a-kind spectacle of masterful artistic collaboration. The stage is now set for Expo 2020 Dubai to host the biggest cultural gathering in the world, presenting a visually striking and emotionally inspiring 182 days, as more than 200 participants – including nations, multilateral organizations, businesses, and educational institutions, as well as millions of visitors – create the largest and most diverse World Expo ever.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>A Cotswold Romance is a cantata adaptation of Vaughan Williams's 'ballad-opera' Hugh the Drover highlighting the chorus. Writing to his librettist, the journalist Harold Child, in 1910, he said: “I have an idea for an opera written to real English words, with a certain amount of real English music”. This idea of vernacular is carried our in Elgar’s “From the Bavarian Highlands” which consists of six poems, written by his wife Alice, depicting a place they had visited on holiday in southern Germany.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>MisaTango by Argentine composer Martín Palmeri is a daring mix of sacred music (sometimes reminiscent of baroque polyphony) and tango! All the ordinary of the Mass is sung, but with a syncopa ted and energetic dance groove. Featuring the bandoneon—the emblematic instrument of tango—the symbiosis between sacred music and Latin American tones and the unconventional combination of “Tango” rhythms and classicism creates unique music full of passion and intense emotions. 2021 also marks the centenary of the birth of Astor Piazzolla—the famous Argentine tango composer, bandoneon player, and arranger—whose works revolutionized the traditional tango. As a tribute to the composer, we will also showcase his tango music performed by Trio de la Sombra as well as a unique composition and commissioned arrangement for choir and orchestra of Oblivion by Vincenzo De Filippo.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>After his promotion to Kapellmeister in 1766 at the Esterházy court, Joseph Haydn began composing the monumental Missa Cellensis in honorem Beatissimæ Virginis Mariæ (Mass for Mariazell in honour of the Blessed Virgin Mary). By the age of twenty, Haydn had travelled 80 miles on foot from Vienna to the pilgrimage site of Mariazell, a popular space to which many devotees journeyed. Some have pondered whether he had dedicated his very personal composition to the Virgin of Mariazell for the prestigious promotion he had been granted. These facts present us with a puzzle: aside from the fact that there is no special relationship between the Esterházy family and Mariazell, the extensive length of the mass would not have been considered suitable for a pilgrimage service, nor would the musical resources be available at the church Mariazell.  Years later, the mass would acquire another name, Cäcilienmesse (St. Cecilia Mass), as the result of a likely performance held in honor of St. Cecilia, the patron saint of music. Though this work is rarely performed, it presents a remarkable splendor of sonority. The brilliance of its C major tonality colored by the energetic interjections of the trumpets and timpani reflect the joyful and festive character of the composition. What is undeniable about this piece is its contagious joyous and celebratory character. Yes, times have been hard on us the past years and the trend of people leaving is ongoing. We have a choice: to give up and walk away, or to stand strong and fight back. We chose to look at the bright side of things and focus on what we have. Music is joy, music is life and music is hope! We chose to stay and fight for what gives us joy. Isn’t this what life is all about?</image:caption>

      <image:title>Gallery - African Sanctus | December 2022 - AFRICAN SANCTUS</image:title>
      <image:caption>African Sanctus” by composer and collector of world music David Fanshawe is a piece that has received international acclaim. It is a celebratory and visionary work, expressing unity between people, their faiths and above all, their music. African Sanctus is an unorthodox setting of the Latin Mass harmonized with traditional African music recorded by the composer on his now legendary journeys up the River Nile (1969-73). The taped music from Egypt, Sudan, Uganda and Kenya is heard in counterpoint with the live chorus, soprano soloist and instrumental ensemble. The work is composed of 13 movements and reflects geographically the composer’s cross-shaped pilgrimage, from the Mediterranean to Lake Victoria, whereby Kyrie represents Cairo and Sanctus Northern Uganda. This wonderful work juxtaposes multimedia, ethnic instruments, and choral singing united for a message of love and peace.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>“From the heart—may it again—go to the heart!” Beethoven inscribed these words in the manuscript of his mighty Missa solemnis, one of his last and largest compositions. His initial motivation was to honorhis friend, student, and patron, Archduke Rudolph, who was to be installed as Archbishop of Olmütz in March 1820. But the project grew in proportions and Beethoven missed the deadline by several years. He added that the Missa solemnis is the “greatest work I have composed so far.” Even allowing for the facts that Beethoven was telling this to a publisher and that in 1822 he had not yet composed the Ninth Symphony and the last string quartets, his declaration must be taken seriously. Its gestation took more than four years and came at a crucial juncture in Beethoven’s career. As the aging and deaf composer increasingly withdrew from society, he created a musical testimony that is one of the supreme expressions of personal belief. Our version will feature an arrangement for chamber orchestra by Linckelmann.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Gallery - Beethoven, Missa Solemnis | July 2023 - Beethoven, Missa Solemnis</image:title>
      <image:caption>“From the heart—may it again—go to the heart!” Beethoven inscribed these words in the manuscript of his mighty Missa solemnis, one of his last and largest compositions. His initial motivation was to honorhis friend, student, and patron, Archduke Rudolph, who was to be installed as Archbishop of Olmütz in March 1820. But the project grew in proportions and Beethoven missed the deadline by several years. He added that the Missa solemnis is the “greatest work I have composed so far.” Even allowing for the facts that Beethoven was telling this to a publisher and that in 1822 he had not yet composed the Ninth Symphony and the last string quartets, his declaration must be taken seriously. Its gestation took more than four years and came at a crucial juncture in Beethoven’s career. As the aging and deaf composer increasingly withdrew from society, he created a musical testimony that is one of the supreme expressions of personal belief. Our version will feature an arrangement for chamber orchestra by Linckelmann.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>In celebration of Saint-Joseph University’s 150th anniversary, the USJ Choir will present a unique program featuring one of the biggest icons of 20th century music: Francis Poulenc.  His style features a unique duality between his deep faith, and a strong sense of fun and fantaisy. Poulenc wrote his Stabat Mater, a hauntingly passionate work, after visiting the sacred shrine of the Black Madonna of Rocamadour, a journey tjay has profoundly changed his life and work as a composer. He once told an interviewer that he had put ‘the best and most genuine part of myself’ into his sacred music. The Gloria, on the other hand, displays unmistakable freshness and vivacity.  What sets Poulenc apart is his ability to create music that is simultaneously playful and profound, light-hearted and deeply emotional. His melodies often possess a charming simplicity, yet beneath the surface lies a complexity that engages both the mind and the heart. Poulenc's harmonic language features unexpected twists and turns, creating a sense of surprise and intrigue for the listener. Additionally, his use of dissonance and unconventional tonal colorings adds a touch of modernism to his compositions. Overall, Poulenc's musical style is characterized by its versatility, wit, and impeccable craftsmanship, making him a truly distinctive figure in 20th-century music.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>“Symphonic Rock” is a groundbreaking concert experience that brings together the power of rock and the grandeur of a symphony orchestra.  The concert featured the grand premiere of legendary rock classics by renowned bands like Queen, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Bon Jovi, and other rock icons, reimagined and transformed with our own original symphonic arrangements by composers Ayad &amp; Sary Khalifé, Vincenzo De Filippo and Nadim Tarabay. With more than 100 artists live on stage, witness the epic merge of Rock and Symphonic Music, as the USJ Choir and JML Symphonic Orchestra unite with a powerhouse Rock Band, with Soloist Kristian Abouanni, under the baton of conductor Yasmina Sabbah.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>On September 23, Lebanon was shaken, and so were we. Music was silenced, leaving only chaos in its wake. But we will not allow silence to define us. As choristers, we are the voice of life that persists. Bound together by music, we will sing and drown out the sounds of chaos and amplify the vibrant pulse of life. After everything we have been through, we invite you to join us on December 18 and 19 for an uplifting concert of Choral Jazz Fusion, to bring warmth to our hearts and celebrate life. The concert delves into the expressive and vibrant world of Jazz, featuring an array of driving grooves, blues-infused harmonies, intricate polyrhythms, and spontaneous improvisation. Join the USJ Choir, along with the Beirut Jazz Quartet and soprano soloist Marie-Josée Matar, under the direction of Yasmina Sabbah, for a truly unique and heartwarming Christmas celebration. The center piece of the evening will be Will Todd’s “Mass in Blue,” a dynamic, uplifting, and highly acclaimed jazz setting of the Latin mass. Complementing this centrepiece, the program will also include popular Jazz standards and jazzy arrangements of Christmas carols, offering a warm and festive holiday experience.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>December 2025 marks a historic double celebration: the 150th anniversary of USJ and the 10th anniversary of the USJ Choir. To honor the meeting of these two legacies, we are immensely proud to unveil, in a world premiere, our very first commissioned work: “Au Coeur de Notre Terre”, an Oratorio for USJ. This vibrant tribute serves as a heartfelt homage to this iconic institution, which has been the very soul of the USJ Choir. Now famous for its bold repertoire that marries classical music with an eclectic array of genres (Jazz, Rock, World Music), the USJ Choir continues its mission: to push its own limits, champion new creation and promote Lebanese composers. Composed by the talented Lucas Sakr on words by a collective of passionate USJ professors, this Oratorio is a stunning fusion, bringing together Western choral traditions and oriental rhythms and instruments, all integrated with contemporary harmonies. You will also recognize traditional Maronite melodies inserted into the texture through an orchestral language that explores new soundscapes crafted specially for this work. The Oratorio also explores exciting new ways to integrate the quarter tone into the rich harmonic language of the piece, truly pushing the boundaries of harmony.</image:caption>
