MEHS Choirs Present the 2015 Winter Concert: Gods in Disguise
Celebrate the 2015 holiday season with the largest Concert Choir in Mt. Eden's history! This wonderful works also features students from Mt. Eden's Concert Band and Orchestra, Chamber Singers, Women's Choir, and Men's Choir.
Gods in Disguise (Förklädd gud)(Op. 24) is a lyrical suite composed in 1940 by Swedish composer Lars-Erik Larsson to lyrics by Hjalmar Gullberg. The setting is for orchestra, mixed choir, soprano solo, baritone solo and narrator. The lyrics are from the collection of poems Kärlek i tjugonde seklet ("Love in the 20th Century") from 1933 and based on a motif from ancient mythology where the god Apollo is doomed to appear as a human for one year and serve as farm hand with King Admetus in Thessaly in the drama Alcestis by Euripides.
