Counterpoint Vocal Ensemble presents "Act of Remembrance"

Counterpoint presents a set of free events reflecting on the Covid-19 pandemic. We will intersperse musical elegies and meditations from diverse traditions with poetry chosen by local poets, exploring the ways we mourn and endure. The program includes works arising from the pandemic by Ana Leira Carnero and Brian Banks, and a commission by Vermont composer Don Jamison and Vermont poet Abigail Carroll. The concerts also feature pieces by Holst, Beethoven, Mendelssohn, and Pete Seeger. Conducted by Nathaniel G. Lew (SOA/Music Choral Director).
