The Many Faces of Peace
The Seattle Peace Chorus is proud to present "The Many Faces of Peace," held on May 5 & 6 at Seattle's Town Hall. Very few masterpieces of choral literature present a direct message of peace and solemn reflection on the chaos and tragedy of war. Such is the 1936 score of "Dona Nobis Pacem," by British composer Ralph Vaughan Williams. The text of Dona Nobis Pacem draws primarily on the writings of Walt Whitman that were composed during his service as a nurse in the Civil War. Challenging and yet deeply memorable, this music perfectly conveys the "desire for a just and peaceful world" - the essence of the Seattle Peace Chorus mission.
The first half will feature the Pacific Northwest premiere of "Song of Wisdom by Old Turtle" by Douglas Wood and Joseph M. Martin, based on the popular children's book, "Old Turtle." For that piece, the Chorus will be joined by the local Spirit of the Sound Choir directed by Eric Des O'Dell.
