Our upcoming All American concerts will be held at the Cambridge United Presbyterian Church, Main Street, Cambridge, NY. The program starts with two pieces by Aaron Copland from his opera The Tenderland which is a story of a young girl seeking independence, much like those who came to this land in the 1600's. The Promise of Living and Stomp Your Foot will be heard first followed by Gwyneth Walker's Dreams and Dances, settings of three poems by Lucille Clifton (Bones Be Good, Some Dreams Hang in the Air, and Let There Be New Flowering). Frostiana, a collection of seven of Robert Frost's poems set by Randall Thompson and Dan Forrest's Good Night, Dear Heart, written by Mark Twain at the death of his daughter follow. The program closes with Kyle Pedersen's stirring setting of Langston Hughes' I Dream a World. Online tickets can be purchased below.
