Strings and Voices: Music for Chorus and Quartet
Saturday March 12, 2016
Featuring the Denovo String Quartet and the Alcyon Chamber Ensemble
Mary has been preparing for this concert for years—and we finally found the quartet to bring it to life! She writes, “The combination of human voices in concert with strings creates a warmth of sound that is not to be missed. The composers of the works on this program use this warmth of sound to craft works of tenderness, passion, yearning and devotion.”
Musica Sacra and the Denovo String Quartet perform:
- Eric Whitacre, 5 Hebrew Love Songs
- Arvo Pärt Fratres and The Woman with the Alabaster Box
- Boston composer Thomas Oboe Lee Minnelieder an Gott
- Tarik O’Regan, The Ecstasies Above
- Ola Gjeilo, Dark Night of the Soul
