VOLTI CONCERTS November 13, 14, & 15, 2009
Poetry, Proverbs, and Music

Volti and Bob Geary invite you to celebrate the opening of Volti's 31st season of singing without a net,  with a concert featuring two premieres of Volti commissions and music from our new CD, "Turn the Page -- New Directions in American Choral Music."  The premieres are by Volti's resident composer Mark Winges and current Volti singer Joshua Fishbein, and back by popular demand are repeat performances of two earlier commissions from composers Stacy Garrop and Eric Moe. Rounding out the program will be works by William Hawley, Mark Zuckerman, and Wayne Peterson. All contemporary, all a cappella, all-American music!
