Conductor: Tucker Biddlecombe
Assistant Conductors: Daniela Diano, Nicholas Zavala
This performance, directed by Tucker Biddlecombe, will begin with a work from Heinrich Schütz, a composer who defines the narrow bridge from the Rennaissance to the Baroque. Accompanying on the Dobson Organ will be Blair’s new Instructor of Organ, Nicholas Reynolds. This concert will also include performances of Ukrainian church music, with a talk about their cultural significance by senior Blair student Diana Nalyvaiko, a native of Ukraine. Finally, we end with Benjamin Britten’s uniquely beautiful “Hymn to St. Cecilia,” a collaboration with poet W.H. Auden during perhaps the most tumultuous time of Britten’s life, but arguably also his most creative period.
Event program:
Jauchzet dem Herren, Psalm 100 – Heinrich Schütz
Sacred music by Ukrainian composers (Dyletski, Koshyts, Havrylets)
Hymn to St. Cecilia - Benjamin Britten
