Caramoor is thrilled to welcome back the Grammy-winning male vocal ensemble Chanticleer, known globally as “an orchestra of voices.”  In Music of a silent world, Chanticleer sings the songs of the natural world and gives a voice to the otherwise voiceless rocks and stones and trees and rivers that share our planet with us. The program centers around a new arrangement of Majel Connery’s The Rivers are our Brothers, and alsoincludes music by Heinrich Isaac, Joni Mitchell, Max Reger,  Stephen Sondheim, Kurt Weill, and Ayanna Woods.

The concert features new pieces by Chanticleer's composer-in-residence Ayanna Woods, as well as a choral arrangement of a new song cycle by Majel Connery.

Nature's Voice

Saint Joseph’s Arts Society

Experience the New York premiere of Ted Hearne’s Dorothea, a Carnegie Hall co-commissioned song cycle by an artist “among the most adventurous creative forces in contemporary music today” (The Nation). These direct and poignant songs color the pathos-ridden, darkly funny work of poet Dorothea Lasky with rhapsodic textures, a synth-pop veneer, and charismatic duets with Hearne and acclaimed vocalist and electronic artist Eliza Bagg.
