Charis Chamber Voices celebrates America’s 250th birthday with Songs of Democracy: Friday April 24 at 7:30 p.m. at First Presbyterian Church of New Canaan, 178 Oenoke Ridge Road, New Canaan, CT, and Saturday, April 25, at 4:00 p.m. at Reformed Church of the Tarrytowns, 42 N Broadway, Tarrytown, NY. Charis’s Artistic Director, Jeremy Wiggins, conducts, accompanied by Terence J. Flanagan at the piano.
The all-American program includes Howard Hanson’s Song of Democracy, his setting of a Walt Whitman poem that celebrates the country’s youth, vigor, and destiny. Fern Hill, by John Corigliano, on a poem by Dylan Thomas, is a nostalgic evocation of childhood with just a hint of what was to come. Works by Aaron Copland and Randall Thompson and familiar American favorites round out the program. 
Charis’s famous wine and cheese reception will follow each concert. We look forward to sharing this birthday bash with you!
Tickets are $25 ($20 for seniors and $15 for students). They may be purchased in advance through the Charis website, <a href="https://www.CharisVocals.com" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">www.charisvocals.com</a>, or at the door.
Charis is an auditioned chorus of about 30 men and women from Westchester County, NY, Fairfield County, CT, and surrounding areas. Founded in 1994, the group is renowned for its diverse repertoire, unique blend of voices and captivating performances. Charis is a media partner of WSHU Public Radio
