The Saint Louis Chamber Chorus opens its 61st annual season with a program exploring the themes of rebirth, revival and resurrection. On Sunday, October 2 at 3 pm, this a cappella choir presents Samuel Barber’s Reincarnations (op. 13), Martha Shaffer’s Five Hymn from The Sacred Harp, and various pieces addressing Christ’s Resurrection by Orlando Gibbons, Charles Wood, and Alexander Gretchaninoff. A highlight will be the world premiere of The Day of Resurrection commissioned from Melissa Dunphy, who will travel to St. Louis from her home in Philadelphia for the performance.
