Please do yourself a treat and come hear the new demo recording, with voices of Cantamus, of David Avshalomov’s “Do You Believe in Angels?”. www.davidavshalomov.com/musical-works/Chorus. Scored for mature children’s or treble chorus and high strings. 9 minutes.
An ecstatic, transcendently beautiful, melodious and harmonically rich setting, this lyrical work, first bright, then dark, finally luminous, explores our various common images of both light and dark angels and angelic encounters without reference to the angel names, traditions, or stories of any specific religion. The original poem by the composer leaves open the question of belief, but explores the awe.
Colorful, evocative string scoring. P/V score gives organ reduction.
