Kantorei opens its 2008-2009 Season by sharing portraits of American choral composition, including modern works and familiar spirituals. The concert will feature Dominick Argento’s tranquil Walden Pond, set for chorus, harp, and cello. The serene and intricate song cycle is based on excerpts from poet Henry David Thoreau’s masterwork, 'Walden,' a reflection upon simple living in natural surroundings. The concert will also include works by emerging choral composers, including J. Aaron McDermid’s Te Lucis Ante Terminum and Ola Gjeilo’s Ubi Caritas.

Kantorei brings its season to a close with a powerful evening of Russian choral masterworks. Composed in 1915, Sergei Rachmaninoff’s All Night Vigil (or Vespers) serves as the quintessential music of the Russian Orthodox Church. Thick-textured and rich, the work utilizes low voices in the choir to create a majestic, commanding sound. Kantorei features three movements from this timeless work. Also included are works from Russian choral masters Gretchaninov, Tchesnokov, and Golovanov.
