Music at Pitt-Greensburg Presents |
This past Fall, we celebrate music of Spanish language and heritage, including works of José Maurício Nunes Garcia and Juan de Anchieta. We sing of the tango and the vito through the music of Astor Piazzolla and Joni Jensen. We round our program with contemporary compositions of Faith Zimmer and Z. Randall Stroope, including his seminal Amor de mi Alma on the passionate text of Renaissance poet Garcilaso de la Vega - You are the Love of my Soul.
And, not only will voice students of Dr. Cynthia Ortiz perform solo works, we are proud to debut our new student-led instrumental ensemble, under the direction of sophomore Lucas Wycich and with music arranged by junior Aaron Zavatchan.
These concerts will take place live and in person on the campus of Pitt-Greensburg in Campana Chapel. They are free and open to the public...but please consider a donation to benefit the Chorale's Spring tour.
