Terra ad Caelum: Songs of Land & Sky (SF)

“And forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair.” – Khalil Gibran, The Prophet

Plant your feet on the ground and let your spirits soar to the sky with Sacred and Profane in May, as we sing songs of earth, wind, and air. We will celebrate Arvo Pärt’s 90th birthday with I Am the Vine, revel in Shawn Crouch’s evocative Marshland Elegy, and be comforted by Frank Ticheli’s compelling Earth Song. We will explore the globe with an Irish folk song and a Saami joik. We return to the Latvian composer Ēriks Ešenvalds with a work for choir, marimba, and wine glasses and to the Swedish composer Karin Rehnqvist with her Songs from the North, a setting of texts by indigenous Arctic Circle poets composed for the ensemble.
