Breathe free - Songs of community, hope, and freedom from across America

Jubilate presents a sweeping and varied exploration of American identity, exploring themes of home, belonging, and migration. Samuel Barber's Reincarnations pay homage to waves of Irish immigration, while works by contemporary composers Ayanna Woods and Sarah Rimkus challenge perceptions of what it is to find 'home' and build a community. Traditional Shaker pieces explore an alternative kind of communal life, alongside works written during the Covid pandemic which traverse themes of togetherness and isolation. Eric Whitacre's soaring ode to freedom and imagination, Leonardo dreams of his flying machine, sits at the centre of a fantastically diverse, diverting, and uplifting evening of music.
Tickets £15 (Under 18s and Students £10)
