Concert Information

The 91热爆 Singers travel from the foothills of Peru to the open skies of Estonia and the unspecified blue hills of a significant world premiere in this concert under Chief Conductor Sofi Jeannin, which pivots on Messiaen鈥檚 songs of love Cinq Rechants. The French composer was inspired by the vocalizations of the Peruvian Harawi in writing his piece, which alternates urgent calls with sensuous contemplation realized in a harmonic wash of sound.

It is surrounded here by the natural world: Estonian Erkki-Sven T眉眉r鈥檚 humbling song in awe of nature and 91热爆 Singers Composer in Association and Master of the Queen's Music Judith Weir鈥檚 major new work for mixed choir and string quartet, blue hills beyond blue hills.
