Details
Prolific musical artist Wendel Patrick and poet and feminist icon Ursula Rucker have combined their talents to compose a world premiere work for the Loyola choruses: *From Mother, With Love. Poems For My Four Suns.* Juxtaposed against this piece's themes of children and mothering are David Lang's Pulitzer Prize-winning *The Little Match Girl Passion*, based on the story by Hans Christian Anderson; Jennifer Kerr Budziak's new work *not coming home/Kindertotenlied*, addressing the grief of all who have lost children and young people to gun violence; and *The Hope of Loving* by Jake Runestad. Each piece will reinforce themes surrounding the welfare of children, as conductor Kirsten Hedegaard guides the concert from darkness to celebration.
