Riderwood Chapel, at Riderwood Village.
3140 Gracefield Road, Silver Spring, MD 20904
With Suzanne Karpov, Soprano
Grace Cho, accompanist
As we await the results of our general election, Voix de Femmes wishes to transport you to a more harmonious, more tranquil, and more peaceable world, complete with just the right amount of light-hearted fun!
The concert will begin with 'African Celebration', by Stephen Hatfield, a compilation of songs from South Africa, including 'O Freedom'. From Africa, we will travel to Spain with 'La Lluvia' (the rain), also composed by Steven Hatfield. The concert will continue its focus on Nature, with selections by Gustav Holst ('Hymn to the Waters' and 'Hymn to the Dawn'); several selections about roses (from Baroque composer Henry Purcell to Morten Lauridsen, Bette Midler and Edith Piaf). The concert will end with the 'Alley Cat Love Song', by Paul Carey, a touch of silliness on this rather serious day!
