Join us in celebrating our own artistically vibrant Bay Area with a program featuring music by both well-known and emerging local composers. We are excited to present Winging Wildly, a three-movement setting of poems about birds by the Bay Area's best-known composer of choral music, Kirke Mechem. This program will also include selections from Mark Winges' mystical Missa Diapente and Gabriela Lena Frank's striking Ccollanan Maria--a work based on a traditional religious tune from Cuzco, Perú, the original capital of the Inca empire in the 15th century. We will highlight California history and culture by presenting David Conte's "Facing West," third in his Whitman Triptych cycle, commissioned in celebration of the 75th anniversary of the Golden Gate Bridge, and Byron Au Yong's Surrender: A Tai Qi Cantata incorporating music with traditional Chinese ideograms and movement. Other Bay Area-centric works include Oakland-based Sanford Dole's humorous Dance Steps that imagines a future of world peace and cooperation, and a work by Edna Yeh.
