The Promise of Peace - Dona Nobis Pacem

Presented by Masterworks Chorale

Oct 26th at 7pm and Oct 27th at 4pm

 

Join Masterworks Chorale for a program that speaks to the power of hope and resilience in troubled times. 

 

Ralph Vaughan Williams' Dona Nobis Pacem is a powerful response to the ravages of war and the urgency of reconciliation and justice. Nathaniel Dett's  Chariot Jubilee offers a stirring counterpoint with its exuberant expression of the lionized spiritual Swing Low, Sweet Chariot. 

 

Other repertoire, including I Will Lift Up Mine Eyes by Adolphus Hailstork, We Shall Walk Through the Valley by Undine Smith Moore and Didn't My Lord Deliver Daniel by Moses Hogan, further advance a message of peace, commitment, and the enduring belief in a better future.

 

Special guest performers Saturday (Bradley Kinard, Baritone) and Sunday (The Lucy Kinchen Chorale). Also featuring Soprano Rabihah Dunn and Tenor Lee Steward.

 

Performed with chamber orchestra.

 

$20-$45.
