Eye of Modok

Another great concert for the International Festival Chorus at the Forbidden City Concert Hall. Last night we performed “A Sea Symphony” by Vaughan Williams, with words by Walt Whitman. It was a challenging piece for sure, and alas, we failed at perfection. However, we seemed to have delivered the message to the smaller than usual audience, who made up for their lack of numbers with their enthusiasm. Our next performance of Handel’s Messiah on December 2nd is ceratain to sell out early again this year and will be wonderful, but this concert debuted a very different kind of choral work than is usually available in China. It’s what we do!
