Paul John Rudoi’s new set for a cappella choir, “Spheres of Influence,” will be premiered on MPR’s Choral Stream at 12 noon on Monday, November 10th. Follow this link to the stream.
Composer Paul John Rudoi, among four participants in VocalEssence’s 2011 Essentially Choral program, was selected for a commission to be premiered at the 2012 National Chorus America conference in Minneapolis. The commissioned work, You Carry Oceans Within, became the first of two pieces in a set titled “Spheres of Influence”, the second piece of which was commissioned through a 2014 Artist Initiative Grant for this live event. Minnesota Public Radio has partnered with Mr. Rudoi to premiere the complete set on MPR’s Choral Stream on November 10th, 2014, to reach new audiences and explore the importance of live recording rather than overly prepared and edited internal recording techniques.
Paul John Rudoi is a fiscal year 2014 recipient of an Artist Initiative grant from the Minnesota State Arts Board, thanks to a legislative appropriation by the Minnesota State Legislature; and by a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts.
