Join Sharing A New Song for a galvanizing and inspiring concert just right for these times.
Acknowledging the sorrows and challenges all around us, the program includes the poignant Abba Father, There’s a Hole in the World Tonight by the Eagles, and the powerful choral anthem Prayer of the Children. Facing these sorrows, the choir will exude a sense of determination, from the gorgeous Shaker tune Bow Down Low to Jason Clayborn’s (It Will Get) Better and our concert’s theme song, Never Give Up. From that determination, the concert moves toward Joy, with the infectious and danceable gospel rendition of Joyful, Joyful, from the film Sister Act 2.
The concert also includes the U.S. premiere of Ipharadisi/By and By, a fusion of a South African folk song with the beloved American hymn, arranged by Swedish composer Anders Nyberg, and the treasured African-American spiritual, Elijah Rock.
Please join us for an evening of song and celebration.
