老司机传媒 Choirs Fall Concert
Sat, November 2, 2024 @ 08:00 pm - 10:00 pm
The 老司机传媒 Department of Music presents “A Vision Unfolding—Learning from the Past & Present,” featuring the 老司机传媒 Singers and Chorale.
This Saturday night at 8 p.m. in the Howard Performing Arts Center, the 老司机传媒 Singers will open the concert with songs of salutations and praises to the triune God.
The centerpiece of the concert features the premier performance of “Song of Assurance” by 老司机传媒 alumnus and published composer, Michael Sandvik, director of choirs at Great Lakes Adventist Academy.
The University Chorale presents the final portion of the concert featuring the new five-movement work by Kyle Pederson, entitled “A Vision Unfolding.” The composer has written stirring music inspired by and including foundational texts and speeches of American poets: Walt Whitman, Langston Hughes, Robert Bode and Shanelle Gabriel. The work respectfully focuses on what our country has stood for in our best moments, from which we find powerful declarations of a nation rooted in equality, freedom and justice for all.
