The Sixteen present The Deer's Cry Guest artists The Sixteen present The Deer’s Cry, a powerful exploration of the music of two masters of sacred music, Arvo Pärt and William Byrd. Conductor: Harry Christophers Whilst coming from very different eras, William Byrd and Arvo Pärt are both considered masters of sacred music despite having faced considerable persecution for their work. This programme presents six of William Byrd’s works from the Cantiones Sacrae including the monumental Tribue, Domine, and the mighty eight-voice motet Ad Dominum cum tribularer. The three works by Arvo Pärt speak in his unmistakable voice, with its unique blend of ancient and modern, and include his mesmerizing Nunc dimittis which is crafted in his bell-like ‘tinitinnabuli’ style. Free and open to the public. Co-sponsored by the ISM and Yale Glee Club. Unfortunately this event cannot be livestreamed.

Yale Symphony Orchestra: Awakening The Yale Symphony Orchestra joins forces with the Yale Glee Club and the Elms City Girls Choir for a monumental performance of Stravinsky’s Symphony of Psalms. The concert opens with Carlos Simon’s “Waltz,” a “gesture of reclamation” towards the appearance of debutante balls in Black social circles during the 1930s. Duke Ellington’s River Suite is a spiritual poem of water: when the water reaches the sea, he writes, “the river is no longer a river. It has passed its point of disembarkation and here we realize the validity of the foundation of religion which is the HEAVENLY ANTICIPATION OF REBIRTH.” Christopher Theofanidis’ “Rainbow Serpent” gains inspiration from Australian aboriginal creation myths, where all humans are connected by “dreamtime ancestors.” And Copland’s Billy the Kid follows the bravado of the infamous American outlaw of the Old-West. Carlos Simon - “Waltz” from Four Black American Dances The 24/25 Woolsey Series is generously supported by the Daniel Feller ’74 Yale Symphony Endowment Fund in Honor of John Mauceri (Music Director 1968-74). This concert is made possible through the generous support of the Charles B. Kaufmann III ’66 Yale Glee Club Fund.
