The Arizona Repertory Singers celebrates the 250th birthday of the United States with their spring program, American Voices. The concerts assemble some of the most renowned composers from across genres and U.S. history in a program sure to engage, enthrall, and illuminate.
From American Spirituals to 21st-century classics, the program spans the breadth of American musical history and styles. Highlights include Moses Hogan’s I’m Gonna Sing ‘Til the Spirit Moves In My Heart, Stacey Gibbs’ Didn’ My Lord Deliver Daniel, Aaron Copland’s Zion’s Walls, and Rene Clausen’s arrangement of the familiar Shaker tune, Simple Gifts.
Audiences will also recognize beloved pop selections such as Paul Simon’s Bridge Over Troubled Water alongside 21st-century choral works by Eric Whitacre and Stephen Paulus.
American Voices is a musical time capsule of the American experiment—always in progress, never relenting, tackling the challenges and obstacles, paving the way for a bright and brighter future.
