Spring Fling: University Treble Choir, Campus Singers and Guests

University of Minnesota

Join us for an unforgettable evening honoring America’s 250th anniversary with three mid-century masterpieces that embody the nation’s vibrant musical spirit. John Corigliano’s Fern Hill (1961) sets Dylan Thomas’s nostalgic poem to lush, evocative harmonies, capturing the fleeting joys of youth. Aaron Copland’s Quiet City (1940) offers a hauntingly beautiful contrast, using solo trumpet and English horn to evoke the mystery and introspection of an American metropolis at night. Lukas Foss’s The Prairie (1944), inspired by Carl Sandburg’s epic poem, celebrates the resilient heart of the American Midwest with a folksy yet profound score. The University Singers and Chamber Singers join the Oratorio Society of Minnesota, forming a powerful 175-voice chorus, accompanied by a full orchestra.
