A freewill offering will benefit the Free Community Meals program here at Prospect Park UMC.ABOUT THE COMPOSER AND PERFORMERS
Born and raised in Airedale, the West Riding of Yorkshire, England, Arthur Maud studied singing at an early age and was chorister and soloist in local churches until the family emigrated to the USA in 1948. He has studied composition in Germany (Hochschule Für Musik, Munich 1956-7) and America with Dominic Argento, Paul Fetler, Harold Genzmer, Carl Orff, Leroy Robertson, Leo Sowerby, and others.
He composed Sinfonia concertante for Organ and Orchestra for the PhD at the University of Minnesota in 1977. As Director of Concentus Musicus Minnesota he prepared and directed more than twenty years of concert seasons for its vocal and early music ensembles and produced nine recordings... Three with international labels.
