Grace Cathedral, in partnership with Art Processors, Against the Grain Theatre, Chicago Sinai and the Cathedral of Notre-Dame in Paris, presents TILT, a concert with contributions spanning cultures, countries and communities. Held each year on the universally-celebrated summer solstice, TILT resonates loudly in 2021 as many nations emerge from the darkness of the global COVID-19 pandemic.
Never before has it been possible to travel in one day to hear music at Grace Cathedral in San Francisco, Chicago Sinai, Notre-Dame Cathedral in Paris, and the wild landscapes of Canada.
The name "TILT" references the angle of the sun at solstice but also the idea of offering a fresh perspective on sacred spaces and classical music. All of the offerings are related to the idea of light.
Performances include:
? From Grace Cathedral's central labyrinth, Singers Stacee Firestone and Kenneth Kellogg, accompanist and music director Ronny Michael Greenberg, and Dancer Terrence Paschal
? From Against the Grain Theatre's new interpretation of Handel's Messiah with Toronto Symphony Orchestra, Looee Arreak, Diyet and Deantha Edmunds sing arias in Inuttitut and Southern Tutchone -- outdoors in natural environments in celebration of Canada's First Nations and underrepresented voices
? The grand organ of Notre-Dame played by Titular Organist, Olivier Latry, accompanied by a drone fly-through of the cathedral
? The Professional Choir of Chicago Sinai singing Leornard Bernstein classics
TILT gives us the opportunity to pause on the longest day of the year, to take a breath, and experience beautiful music in sacred spaces. Please join us.
