In a program of music written entirely by living composers, the choruses at UC Davis perform works ideal for intimate concert venues such as the Pitzer Center. The repertoire incorporates many different choral traditions, including American Spirituals (including The Storm is Passing Over arranged by Barbara Baker), Venezuelan folk songs (La Paloma by Cristian Grases), Filipino or Visayan folk songs (Rosas Pandan, arranged by George Hernandez), and modern choral harmonies (as in Marques Garrett’s My Heart Be Brave).

Choruses Of Uc Davis: “music Of The Living”

With the guest ensemble Alturas Duo, the Choruses of UC Davis and Nicolás Dosman bring the rhythms and holiday vocal traditions of the Americas (both Southern America and Northern America) to Davis. Works include Navidad Nuestra by Ariel Ramírez (an Andean influenced folk telling of the nativity story), Aaron Copland’s Zion’s Walls (drawn from Appalachian America’s hymnal traditions), and Abreme la Puerta (a traditional Christmastime song from Puerto Rico).
