Newbury Chamber Choir - American Choral Reflections
Sat 14 Mar 26
Concert starts 7.30pm.
Tickets £18, Under 18’s £5. From www.newburychamberchoir.org or on the door.
St John's Church, Newbury RG14 7PY
This concert brings together choral works shaped by the American musical landscape - its faith, its folk traditions, and its gift for heartfelt expression. The programme includes Stephen Paulus’s The Road Home, Aaron Copland’s Four Sacred Motets, and Eric Whitacre’s intimate and tender The Seal Lullaby and This Marriage. Experience the glowing, expansive sound-worlds of Ola Gjeilo’s Ubi Caritas and Northern Lights, written while the Norwegian was living and working in the United States. American choral tradition is further reflected in works shaped by spirituals and folk song, including Deep River, Simple Gifts, and We Shall Walk Through the Valley. Together, these pieces form a portrait of American choral music that speaks of peace, love, and the enduring search for home. Soprano soloist Elisabeth Cullen will be performing works by George Gershwin and Samuel Barber. Join us in the beautiful setting of St John's Church for this wonderful concert...
