More About Charis's Songs of Democracy Concert

Songs of Democracy marks the approaching 250th anniversary of the United States through music that reflects the American spirit and the many voices that shape it. From the folk sounds of Zion’s Walls and Shenandoah to the powerful poetry of Dylan Thomas in John Corigliano’s Fern Hill, this program explores themes of memory, hope, and community. Works by Howard Hanson, Roy Ringwald, André Thomas, Randall Thompson, and Cecil Effinger draw on American texts and ideals, offering moments of reflection, celebration, and gratitude for the freedoms we share.
