ASTER Women's Choir Sings of War and Peace
The theme of ASTER Women's Chamber Choir's Spring concert is a timeless one which has inspired great poetry and music. Two local composers, Sara Flores and Alex Craig, will have pieces premiered. The Flores piece, Untapped Peace, features original words and music and answers a child's questions about war. The Craig cycle, War Songs Revisited, is a set of pieces setting poems by 12th century Chinese poet, Kao Ch'i, Edna St. Vincent Millay, Amy Lowell, Rudyard Kipling and Alfred, Lord Tennyson. Kim André Armesen's Even When He is Silent is a poignant piece setting a text found written on a wall of a concentration camp after World War II.
In addition, musical guests Anna Lynn-Palevsky and Declan Siefkas will perform an instrumental interlude composed by Artistic Director Christina Lynn-Craig's father. This Idyl for Violin and Piano provides a transition from the War and Peace sections of the program. Another special offering is the Iraqi Peace Song which will be sung in a mixture of Arabic and English accompanied by cello and drum.
The concert will conclude with a performance of Franz Schubert's sublime Twenty-third Psalm, and Gwyneth Walker's exuberant setting of E. E. Cummings poem I Thank You God for Most This Amazing Day.
