Kantorei completes its 2009-2010 concert season by bringing internationally acclaimed conductor Simon Carrington to the Denver arts community. Most recently the professor of choral conducting at Yale University, Carrington is best known for co-founding the renowned British vocal ensemble The King’s Singers.
Carrington joins Kantorei for an evening of choral music from several British composers including William Byrd, Henry Purcell, and Benjamin Britten. Britten's rarely-performed "A.M.D.G. (Ad majorem Dei gloriam)," a setting of seven texts by English poet Gerard Manley Hopkins, highlights the evening under Carrington's direction.
Also featured in the concert will be several works from American composers, including the world-premier performance of "Lost in the Loving, Floating Ocean of Thee," the latest work from composer and Kantorei member Timothy Tharaldson.
