BCG's June concert presents a selection of delightful music based on Shakespeare's poems and plays by composers from the 18th-21st Century. The songs, all quite different even if the same text set is by two different composers, run the gamut from deeply thoughtful to slapstick! Our commissioned work, an 8-part setting of Sonnet 60, "Like as the Waves..." is by Aaron Lington, award-winning baritone saxophonist, composer and Professor of Music at San Jose State. Additional composers include Thomas Arne, Amy Beach, R. Vaughn Williams, Matthew Harris, Cecilia McDowall, Nancy Wertsch and others. It's all great fun to sing and very enjoyable to listen to!
