SEE EVENT DETAILS
“I hear America singing, the varied carols I hear” – Walt Whitman

The program features selections from "Folksong Mass" by Japanese American composer Paul Chihara, arrangements of Amish folksongs by Mark Templeton, African American spirituals arranged by Moses Hogan and Stacey Gibbs, and traditional Quaker and American Harp songs arranged by Jocelyn Hagen, Alice Parker, and Shawn Kirchner.
