Anthology: Verse Meets Chorus

Sat, 19 Oct 2024
13:00 - 14:00

QUMS is proud to present our Semester 2 Concert, Anthology: Verse Meets Chorus - conducted by Guillaume Lemay-Yates and accompanied by Christian Gante.

A compendium of poetry set to music, we are delighted to showcase Samuel Coleridge-Taylor's Hiawatha's Wedding Feast, featuring the talented Kevin Gomez (tenor) as the voice of Chibiabos, "the sweetest of musicians".

We will also present a selection of other gorgeous works: Stars (Ešenvalds, Teasdale), Schöne Fremde (Hensel, von Eichendorf), Sure on this Shining Night (Lauridsen, Agee), and African Medley (van der Merwe, trad & Makeba). Keep an eye out for some surprise additions to the performance!
