The eleventh annual Saratoga Choral Festival. The Sacred Service will feature organist Ed Lawrence, minister of music at Williamstown’s First Congregational church and studio instructor of organ, harpsichord and piano at Williams College. In Bloch’s words, “this great Jewish oratorio far surpasses a Jewish Service … it has become a cosmic poem, a glorification of the Laws of the Universe.” The work was the first large scale setting of the Jewish worship service by a mainstream composer. It conveys a grand and universal meaning of gratitude, hope, and compassion. Ronald Perera's seven-movement work, The Golden Door, is based on oral histories of immigrants who entered the United States through Ellis Island. The work tells their inspiring and powerful stories from the time they decided to leave the Old Country until their arrival in New York Harbor. The work concludes with a moving setting of the concluding verse from the famous poem by Emma Lazarus that appears on the base of the Statue of Liberty. The work, as a whole, humanizes for the listener many experiences of the people who have come to this country seeking a greater quality of life. |
