A panoramic sampling of "American Choral Masterpieces: Past, Present & Beyond," the VocalEssence Ensemble Singers will perform selections spanning three centuries of United States history, from William Billings (1746), to folksongs of the 1800s, to 20th century
masters such as Aaron Copland and Leonard Bernstein. Works of contemporary composers Eric Whitacre and Aaron Jay Kernis complete the programme.
Heralded by the London Times as "a superb American choir...an engaging group, polished, bright and brilliantly balanced" - the Grammy award nominated and Gramophone award winning chorus has previously performed in England at the Covent Garden Festival and the Aldeburgh Festival.
