Voices of Concinnity, a chamber ensemble of Consonare Choral Community presents

From Silence To Song

Venture outside with us to emerge from isolation with song. In painting, “plein air” is a technique that depicts the transformation of an outdoor scene under the constantly changing quality of natural light. As singers, the richness and uncertainty of nature has become part of our new choral landscape as this past year has drawn us outside.    

To acknowledge the struggles endured by singers as choirs were silenced during the pandemic, Voices of Concinnity will explore the diametrically opposed through song for four (4) performances as a representation of the varying and ever-changing quality of our experiences of this past year.  “From Silence to Song” will feature part-songs from wide array of composers, such as Elaine Hagenberg, Vittoria Aleotti, Claude Debussy, Reena Esmail, Samuel Coleridge-Taylor, Cheryl Engelhardt, Ralph Vaughan Williams, and more on themes of love, singing, nature, and the promise of spring.

On Saturday, June 26, Voices of Concinnity will perform on Betsy Paterson Square in Downtown Storrs. In addition to the performance, there will be a Juried Art Show at 4:00 PM as well as a chance for the audience to join the performers in song!
