the national anthems

Presented by Resonance Works Pittsburgh at Heinz Memorial Chapel

We open our 7th season with a celebration of our global community inspired by Pulitzer Prize winner David Lang’s the national anthems for choir and string quartet.  Lang researched the anthems of the 193 countries of the United Nations, attempting to identify the things that we all share.  We continue this exploration through a program of choral and chamber music by 12 composers representing 6 continents including a world premiere! Audiences will have the opportunity to extend their experience with a musical prelude and tour of the majestic Nationality Rooms preceding each performance. 

Works by: Arvo Pärt, Gabriela Lena Frank, James MacMillan, Chen Yi, Jorge Sosa, Caroline Shaw, Mary Kouyoumdjian, Enoch Sontonga, Florence Price, Vivian Fung, Kaija Saariaho, and Silvestre Revueltas
