Northwest Chamber Chorus: The American Spirit PLY
Plymouth Congregational
Seattle, WA
Northwest Chamber Chorus sings sacred music that has arrived in America from many different directions and places, and has developed from influences just as diverse. This is not a program of music of Christianity, but a celebration of the diversity of spirituality in America in the 21st century. Well trace the musical paths that have led us to where we are today. South American music will include Kasar Mie la Gaji (Earth is Tired) on a sub-Saharan African text set by Venezuelan composer Alberto Grau, Salmo 150 by Brazils Ernani Aguiar, and Hanacpachap, arranged by Oscar Escalada and believed to be the first piece of music published in the new world. North America will be well-represented as well, with Magic Songs by trail-blazing Canadian composer, R. Murray Schafer, Shaker Songs arranged by Kevin Siegfried, and Deep River arranged by Swedish Anders Paulsson for choir and soprano saxophone, featuring saxophonist Michael Brockman.
Note: All seating is festival. Parking is avail. in IBM underground garage off University St. between 5th & 6th Ave. Street parking is free on Sundays in downtown Seattle.
