The Choral Society of Pensacola presents the regional premiere of Jocelyn Hagen’s dazzling "The Notebooks of Leonardo da Vinci," a multimedia symphony for chorus, orchestra, and video, using cutting-edge syncing technology. Artistic director Peter Steenblik conducts the 100-voice chorus in the composer's chamber ensemble version of the work.

Commissioned for the 500th anniversary of da Vinci’s death by a consortium of ensembles from across the United States, the work has received more than two dozen performances since its premiere in 2019. Through an innovative fusion of words, music, and images, it brilliantly conveys the genius of the great Renaissance painter, draftsman, sculptor, architect, and engineer.
