Spring Concert

2012 Spring ConcertIn early June we will come Full Circle for a concert featuring Sarah Hopkin’s Past Life Melodies, the Australian piece that has taken the choral world by storm with its earthy drones and aboriginally inspired overtone singing. Along with that we will travel three continents with music by Mechem, Brahms, and a world premiere to celebrate Martín Benvenuto’s 10th anniversary as artistic director of WomenSing! Acalanes High School Bella Voce and the Contra Costa Children’s Chorus Honors Ensemble will join us in unveiling our fourth-year YIY commissions by Anastasia Pahos (Australia) and Dale Trumbore (U.S.), both writing a setting of the beautiful River of Words poem Reflections. Come early to hear our composers at the pre-concert talk.
