Journey through stories of love, nature, war, self, and family through choral music.Music is always telling stories, be it from the context in which it was composed, the text telling a particular story, or something more metaphorical. This concert invites you on a journey through a spectrum of pieces from different eras and cultures, each telling their unique stories of love, nature, mental health, and family.
Program highlights:
-Stories of War: We delve into the poignant realities of war as depicted through Maurice Ravel's enchanting melodies in Nicolette and Trois Beaux Oiseaux du Paradis .
-Stories of Love: We explore the complexities of affection through Gustav Holst's achingly beautiful I Love My Love .
-Stories of Nature: We journey into the serene connection between human emotions and the natural world, brought to life by Fanny Hensel's Schöne Fremde and Mari Esabel Valverde's A Green Voice .
-Stories of Self: We delve into self-discovery and personal growth, beautifully portrayed in contemporary composer Laura Mvula's Sing to the Moon and Florence Price's Wander-thirst .
-Stories for Families: We celebrate familial bonds and shared experiences with whimsical pieces such as Teddy Bears' Picnic and Josquin's El Grillo , and bring the concert to a close with Stephen Sondheim's profound Children Will Listen from Into the Woods .
