Depth to Height

A new song cycle from Kerensa Briggs* introduces a program of contrasts, from the depth of despondency evoked by Carl Rütti* to the high praise of Magnus Williamson*. Much of this music is dedicated to the late Sarah Bryan Miller, critic and friend.

In Progressions, the Chamber Chorus explores transitions in time, space, emotion and even element. We reaffirm our commitment to unaccompanied singing by performing a cappella works from beloved composers as well as newer pieces sure to garner a place in the unaccompanied pantheon. Our audiences know us for stretching ourselves artistically, and we fulfill that mission with new music from Kerensa Briggs, Yakov Gubanov, and Dobrinka Tabakova, all of whom will fly here for the premieres. We also revisit our past commissions with fresh eyes.

The Saint Louis Chamber Chorus presents the finest a cappella choral works in the region's most distinctive buildings, seeking to entertain, educate, and inspire.
