DESCRIPTION: Join the Capitol Hill Chorale for "The Music of Fanny Mendelss
 ohn Hensel" on Saturday\, March 16 at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday\, March 17 at 4
  p.m. at Capitol Hill Presbyterian Church. \n\n Composer and pianist Fanny
  Mendelssohn Hensel (Nov. 14\, 1805 – May 14\, 1847) received the same m
 usical education as her famous brother Felix. According to her father\, He
 nsel's musical talent could be "only an ornament." As a woman\, she never 
 received the same recognition of her younger sibling. \n\n In this program
 \, we will shine a light on Hensel’s choral compositions. \n\n We will b
 e joined for this concert by mezzo-soprano Kristen Dubenion-Smith\, recogn
 ized for her "velvety legato and embracing warmth of sound" (Washington Cl
 assical Review). \n\n Dr. Michael Cooper\, biographer of both Fanny and Fe
 lix Mendelssohn\, will join the Chorale for a pre-concert lecture on her l
 ife and music. The lecture begins 30 minutes before the start of each conc
 ert. \n\n \n\n COVID Precautions \n\n We do not require masks or proof of 
 vaccination for audience members\, but we encourage our audience to be res
 pectful of their neighbors' preferences. If you are sick\, please do not a
 ttend—even if it's not COVID. \n\n Specific requirements may be updated 
 based on COVID levels in the area. We will keep this ticket page updated w
 ith the most current information\, and we will happily issue refunds to th
