You'll be energized and uplifted by music rooted in Spanish folk dance and American poetry. Bolero, the mesmerizing 1928 creation of Maurice Ravel, has motivated flash-mob performances worldwide. Leaves of Grass, Walt Whitman's groundbreaking poetry collection, inspired the two choral works in this concert: Ralph Vaughan Williams' spiritual, 1906 Toward the Unknown Region and Howard Hanson's proud 1957 Song of Democracy, which we perform in honor of the 250th anniversary of the United States' Declaration of Independence.
