About the event
American Choral Classics
Experience the depth and beauty of American choral tradition in this moving program led by Richmond Symphony Chorus Director Richard W. Robbins. Blending folk melodies, sacred texts, and poetic reflections, American Choral Classics captures the spirit of a nation through choir.
Timeless spirituals like Shenandoah and Deep River resonate with emotional power, while early American hymns such as William Billings’ I am the Rose of Sharon and the traditional Hark, I Hear the Harps Eternal speak to the country’s musical roots. Amy Beach’s serene Peace I Leave with You offers quiet solace, and Randall Thompson’s beloved Frostiana brings the profound lyricism of Robert Frost’s poetry to the stage.
A celebration of American voices, past and present, this concert invites you to reflect, remember, and rejoice.
