Westminster Choir presents WCC@100: The Westminster Choir Looks Forward

Donald Nally, conductor with Scott Dettra, organ

The Westminster Choir celebrates the college's 100th anniversary with a program featuring distinguished alumni as conductor and organist and works from the rich history of choral music. Brahms, the height of the Romantic era, and Howells, the pinnacle of the English 20th-century Renaissance look back, while mystical minimalism is represented by its master Arvo Pärt in his iconic, Salve regina. Finally, a virtuosic contemporary work from American composer Stacy Garrop based on the writings of Lydia Davis; an exploration of aging, told through the metaphor of decay and dissolution in a house besieged.
