A Time for Joy, presented by the Cheyenne Chamber Singers
The Cheyenne Chamber Singers concludes its 2017-18 "Season in Time" with an amazing, elaborate production of "African Sanctus"
African Sanctus has received international acclaim. It is a celebratory and visionary work, expressing unity between people, their faiths and above all, their music. African Sanctus is an unorthodox setting of the Latin Mass harmonised with traditional African music recorded by the composer on his now legendary journeys up the River Nile (1969-73). The taped music from Egypt, Sudan, Uganda and Kenya is heard in counterpoint with the Cheyenne Chamber Singers' performance, along with a guest soprano soloist and instrumental ensemble. The work is composed in 13 movements and reflects geographically the composer's cross-shaped pilgrimage, from the Mediterranean to Lake Victoria.
The Cheyenne Chamber Singers is an auditioned group of 23 professional singers and gifted amateurs, presenting unique choral music to Cheyenne and the region. The "Time for Joy" performance will feature additional guest singers and instrumentalists for this joyful multimedia experience.
