Please join us for a thrilling afternoon as we present three inspiring works conducted by Artistic Director David Baranowski and Assistant Director Wilden Dannenberg.
Each of the works by the three composers on the program, Maurice Duruflé, Randall Thompson, and Ola Gjeilo, challenges the listener to face the worst and affirm the best in humanity.
In “Dark Night of the Soul,” composed in 2010, Gjeilo weaves the human voices of a double chorus into a voiced instrument in urgent conversation with piano and strings.
Thompson’s 1936 work, “The Peaceable Kingdom” braids the warlike poetry of Isaiah’s Biblical prophecy into a contemporary plea for peace.
In Duruflé’s 1948 “Requiem,” chorus, chamber orchestra, mezzo and baritone soloists, and organ summon traditional plainchant and the ritual of the Requiem Mass to reaffirm, today, the persistence of hope.
