A Garden Party: May 2 and 3

We delivered two afternoons of inspiring music that explored the roots of our heritage and the blossoms of our future.

We journeyed through the storytelling of Dave Gunning and the nostalgia of Stan Rogers, to the contemplative sounds of Katerina Gimon and Morten Lauridsen, as well as the soulful, indigenous-inspired work of Sherryl Sewepagaham, the vibrant contemporary work of Shruthi Rajasekar, Natalie Hemby, and the timeless Thomas Morley.

The highlight of our program and milestone for us was the World Premiere of the beautiful Rhodora by the local composer Byron Hermann, directed by himself.
