FROM THE ASHES

FROM THE ASHES

Redemption, Rebirth, Renewal

Unica semper avis - the sun’s immortal Phoenix boldly rises from the ashes reborn into eternal redemption, paradisal renewal, and heavenly rebirth. Storied by the ancients of Greece, Egypt and Persia, the Phoenix’ powerful imagery is musically woven into VoxO’s brilliant vocals in intimate collaboration with Orlando’s finest music groups, OCCO and CF2. From the Ashes, OCCO’s second concert, encapsulates the exceptional uplifting musical power of victory, beauty, and grace. Performed by Orlando’s VoxO, July’s concert delicately intertwines strong passages of restorative imagery performing passionate works by Barbara Kaszuba, *Erik Branch, Bill Freas, Loren Loiacono, *Eric Heumann, *Jeremy Umlauf, Alan Desai, Richard Rather, Anthony Mosakowski, and Derek Weagle capturing the concert’s fascinating theme and music collaboration. *CF2
