Rhythm of Time: Music for Choir and Piano (San Francisco)

We measure both our experience of time and our experience of music. From organizing our days to connecting us to the cycles of life, the passing of time governs our lives, colors our musical language, and inspires our imaginations. Join us as we explore these temporal relationships through works for choir and piano by composers across the centuries—from the German Romanticism of Franz Schubert’s Der Tanz to Cyndi Lauper’s pop hit Time after Time (arranged for us by “the godfather of a cappella” Deke Sharon), and everything in between. The program features Swedish composer Eskil Hemberg’s Of Time and Life, English composers Benjamin Britten and Samuel Coleridge-Taylor—whose beautiful Summer is Gone depicts the turning of the seasons with musical anticipation—and San Francisco’s Conrad Susa. We are delighted to present several innovative pieces by women composers, including works by Zanaida Robles, Jocelyn Hagen, Dale Trumbore, Stacy Garrop, Rosephanye Powell, and our own assistant conductor, Edna Yeh.
