“Beautiful“
What exactly is beautiful about choral music and choral singing?
Our program this spring is choral exploration of what we find deeply moving and meaningful in the act of singing together. Is it the notes, rhythms, and structures of the sounds or the act of the singing together itself? Does it have something to do finding a voice against injustice, bonding as peoples, cultures, or nations through song? Is it harmony, melody, or rhythm? Is it the poetry or the texts with which we work? What exactly makes choral music beautiful?
The new Whole Note magazine features an article on the UW Gamelan Ensemble and Dr. Maisie Sum, the Conrad Grebel professor who is the director. For the full article, see The Whole Note pg 29-30.
The UW Gamelan Ensemble will perform as part of our noon hour series. Be transported to Bali by drums and gongs with rapid fire interlocking parts.
Graduating in Honours Music, Melissa will perform her last term recital featuring works from Bach to Bartok.
All welcome. Reception to follow.
