We celebrate the end of our 40th anniversary season with a juxtaposition of great historic choral classics with music by two of the 21st century’s most accomplished composers. The concert will begin with Bach’s cantata # 80 Ein Feste Burg which was sung at AVM’s very first concert in May 1978. It will be followed by Ola Gjeilo’s Song of the Universal based upon a poem by Walt Whitman. This is a 2016 arrangement for mixed chorus of a 2014 setting for women’s voices. Mozart’s Regina Coeli will serve as the choral foundation for Part II of the concert to be followed by Latvian composer Peteris Vasks’ moving and heart wrenching Dona Nobis Pacem.
