Noble \u2013 Introspective \u2013 Challenging<\/h3>\n

Arranged for voices by the composer himself, Barber\u2019s beautifully introspective Adagio for Strings<\/strong><\/em> balances tension with resolve and serenity. \u00a0And America the Beautiful<\/strong><\/em> will ring throughout the hall.<\/p>\n

The program features the winner of the second Stephen Paulus Emerging Composer competition, using text written by American poet Alan Seeger (uncle of Pete Seeger) while serving in World War I. (To learn more about the competition and the text chosen for this season\u2019s compositions, see the Stephen Paulus Emerging Composer competition page<\/a>.)<\/p>\n

The concert culminates with Dreams of the Fallen<\/strong><\/em> by Jake Runestad, with text by award-winning poet and veteran of the Iraq and Afghanistan Wars, Brian Turner. Considered a groundbreaking work for solo piano, chorus and orchestra, Dreams of the Fallen<\/strong><\/em> explores the impact war has on an individual, especially after he or she returns from combat.<\/p>\n

Celebrating heroism and bravery, True Concord turns to the best of American composers to address emotional issues with the power of music.<\/strong><\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”4923″ img_size=”full” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][mk_blockquote font_family=”none”]\n

\u201cNo matter our personal opinions of war, may\u00a0Dreams of the Fallen<\/em>\u00a0deepen our awareness of its impact and challenge us to listen, feel, grieve, and seek to understand those who have given of themselves for our country.\u201d<\/p>\n
