BraveSouls & Dreamers Commission


Give a Musical Legacy This Holiday Season

One Voice Mixed Chorus has commissioned composer Robert Seeley and lyricist Robert Espindola to compose a mixed chorus arrangement of Brave Souls & Dreamers. This multi-movement work celebrates the lives of visionary leaders who have worked to end violence, promote healing, and confront all forms of discrimination in their communities, including homophobia. Inspired by the words of Gandhi, Jesus, Mother Teresa, Isaiah, Jimmy Carter, Confucius, Buddha, and the Qur’an, this commission was composed after 9/11 “in response to current raging wars” as a powerful call for peace. This evocative, multi-movement piece, which premieres at our concerts on January 21 and 22, 2012, is written for chorus, instrumental ensemble, and four soloists including voices of the Mother, Sage and two soldiers.

During this season of giving, your donation will allow us to share this incredible work with an ever broader community. Contributions can be made in your name or in honor or remembrance of anyone you choose. Make a dream come true with a gift for the music lovers in your life! Multiple orders are cheerfully accepted and you may order by mail, phone, or online.

Making a difference
 

One Voice singer Vicki Janisch-Tri and her husband, Jerry, have honored the memory of their beloved Aunt Cynthia by making a substantial financial contribution toward the total $12,000 cost of the commission. “I’m thrilled to help make this glorious work of music possible,” says Vicki. “The message of confronting hate really resonates with me, and my eyes well up every time I hear this gorgeous music.”
