This passionate and engaging program showcases the orchestra and chorus through a diverse group of composers. We begin with an energetic and expressive cantata for tenor, chorus and orchestra by the well-known African-American composer Adolphus Hailstork; this is followed by the New England premiere of Augusta Read Thomas’ Far Past War, a work she says is  “about bringing peace through nature, both to the self and to the world.” The program concludes with Ralph Vaughan Williams’ masterwork, Dona Nobis Pacem, featuring Baritone Christopheren Nomura, and Soprano Brianna J. Robinson
