Sublime and Ridiculous Songs

The Unitarian Universalist Church of Silver Spring
Silver Spring, MD

Great Noise Ensemble returns to one of its favorite venues, the Unitarian Universalist Church of Silver Spring, to present a program which highlights the beauty and expressive range of the human voice. "Sublime and Ridiculous Songs" brings together music featuring solo voices which run the gamut from David Little's profound musings on war and military life in "Soldier Songs" to Pablo Neruda's odes to everyday objects in Arlene Sierra's "Neruda Settings" while Tom Schnauber ruminates on childhood in his "Not Pooh!" songs and Louis Andriessen has a little fun with Mozart (and Frankenstein!) in "M is for Man, Music, Mozart."

"The music on this program is, perhaps, the most challenging and the most fun that Great Noise Ensemble has yet to take on and provides an excellent opportunity to feature the human voice," says artistic director Armando Bayolo. The group features two of its regular members as well as bringing two new faces in as guest soloists: Kara Morgan, who lends her lyrically rich voice to Sierra's "Neruda Settings," and Rachel Barham, whose humor and vim shine in "M is for Man, Music, Mozart." Monica Szabo brings her talents to Schnauber's "Not Pooh!" and baritone Aaron McNeil takes on selections from David Little's powerful one-man opera "Soldier Songs."
