8:00 PM. Musica Sacra [MA]: Less is More: Minimalism in Choral Music. This program begins where last season’s March program left off—this year we are taking the old shape note tunes in a minimalist direction, inspired by William Duckworth’s monumental collection Southern Harmony. We will also explore what happens when you deconstruct music in a wider sense, so you will hear music with the use of a limited scale, music without pitch, music without rhythmic coordination, and so forth. William Walker/William Duckworth: Holy Manna; William Duckworth: Turtle Dove; The Mouldering Vine; Arvo Pärt: Solfeggio; Ernst Toch: Geographical Fugue; Scott Anthony Shell: I Am the Dance; Knut Nystedt: Immortal Bach; Alice Parker: Wondrous Love; William Duckworth: Wondrous Love; Philip Glass: Three Songs (settings of texts by Leonard Cohen, Dorothy Parker, and George Herbert, among others); Hilary Tann: Paradise; Heinrich Christensen: Very Short Songs.
