Stonegate Brass Quintet, along with organist Christopher Orf, harpist and organist Robert Hutmacher, a Franciscan friar, and St. Michael’s Choir, will perform “Music for the End of Time” as part of Chiesa Nuova’s fall music series at 4 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 23, in St. Michael’s Church, 310 S. Wheaton Ave., Wheaton.

A Franciscan performing arts ministry founded by Hutmacher, Chiesa Nuova presents monthly performing arts events, usually in Chicago. “Music for the End of Time” will be a compilation of classical music including a hymn by Hutmacher titled “Let Us Begin.”

The Stonegate Brass, formed in 2004 by Paul Semanic, is recognized for its interpretations of the classics and for bringing lesser known works to its audiences. The ensemble members have performed with such orchestras as the Chicago Symphony, Lyric Opera and Music of the Baroque.

Tickets cost $25, $40 for two people. For tickets or more information, call (312) 226-0983 or visit www.chiesanuova.org.
