Composers of the Far North were often influenced by local religious beliefs, the constantly changing weather, and the many moods of pristine Nordic landscapes. In a variety of solo and chamber ensembles, our vocal and instrumental artists highlight the qualities of simplicity, minimalism, calmness, and meditation which exemplify so much Scandinavian music.
This concert, which was originally scheduled for May 2, includes:
- String Quartet in D Minor, “Voces Intimae,” Op. 56, by Sibelius
- Violin Duet by Nielsen
- Vocal and piano selections by Grieg, Stenhammar, and Becker Gröndahl
Featured musicians: Duane Padilla and Jeanine Markley, violins; Alexander Peña, viola; Aris Doike, cello; Thomas Yee, piano; Naomi Barrett, soprano; and Brian Minnick, tenor.
Free admission; suggested donation: $20
For those not attending in person, the concert will livestream on our Worship Services page and the LCH Facebook page.
