Description
Presented by The Laconia Putnam Fund 50th Anniversary Spring Concerts 2024 The 100-voice Pemigewasset Choral Society, under the direction of William Gunn, presents "Sweet Rivers." The chorus will premiere a commissioned work by internationally recognized composer Moira Smiley. Her composition, “I Soared Without Regret,” is a musical setting of the powerful poem, “Flying,” by former Plymouth State University professor Jane Babin, who died from ALS in 2015. The chorus will be accompanied by a chamber orchestra for several pieces including the beautiful “Mass in G” by Franz Schubert, “Sweet Rivers” by Shawn Kirchner, and a collection of other dynamic choral works that celebrate the positive impact of music in our lives.
