“As we have come to expect, Lisa Wong conducted The Cleveland Orchestra Chorus with authority.”

“For the concert’s second half — Schubert’s Mass in E-flat, a wellspring of beauty that is bafflingly underperformed in the United States — the stage was drastically more populated with the addition of five vocal soloists and members of the Cleveland Orchestra Chorus, an all-volunteer ensemble that behaves like an entirely professional one."

“Prepared by Lisa Wong, the chorus sang nearly without respite for the work’s hour long duration – easily the star of the show.”

“The chorus, directed by Lisa Wong, was far more nuanced than usual in this piece, even while wearing face masks; I heard harmonies in the opening scene that were new to me.”
