Vox Nova Chamber Choir to present “The Four Seasons: Spring Equinox” in concert.
Vox Nova Chamber Choir presents its third installment of The Four Seasons concert series with a performance Sunday, April 15, 2018 at 3:00 PM at The Orion Performing Arts Center, Mt. Ararat Middle School, 66 Republic Ave., Topsham.
The music for Spring Equinox celebrates nature’s awakening from winter. Hyems’ “Be Gone, Winter!” heralds the departure of the frozen season. Stephen Paulus’ “Spring” and “Afternoon on a Hill” herald the earth’s rebirth through her flora and fauna. White’s “Blue Estuaries,” “Nightingales” by Finzi, Tippet’s “Dance: Clarion Air,” provide traditional fader while the whimsical “Language of the Birds” accompanied by string quartet and composed by Australian composer Veronika Krausas pokes fun. Ole Gjeilo’s “Across the Vast Eternal Sky” highlights rebirth with imagery of a fiery sunset representative of the phoenix.
Vox Nova Chamber Choir (Est. 2009) under the direction of Dr. Shannon Chase, champions the expansive body of modern and contemporary choral repertory.
