Opus 16 Coming Up

Dear Consort Singers,

The centerpiece of this summer's concert will be my latest extended commission, a 30 minute multi-media work for chorus, orchestra, and visuals entitled “Touch." Inspired by paintings of renowned Chinese Christian artist He Qi, and lyrics by yours truly based on Scripture, Tao Te Ching, and Confucius, it is really David Irvine's brainchild, and it will be premiered at his church on June 28, 2009 . Some of you are joining his choir for the event. We will also honor the 200th anniversary of Franz Joseph Haydn's death by singing his "Te Deum in C." We will fill the rest of the program with some choral gems, "The Seal Lullaby" by Whitacre, "I Carry Your Heart with Me" by Dickau and Argento's "So, I'll Sing with My Voice." A little RVW, Johnson, and Gibbs will round out our program. A small budget orchestra will be included in the accompaniment design.
