The Far West

Sunday, February 23rd

New works by Southern Alberta composers Jesse Plessis and Sonny-Ray Day Rider are featured alongside a reprise of Zachary Wadsworth’s The Far West. Premiered by Luminous Voices in 2014, The Far West won the National Choral Award for “Outstanding Choral Composition” from Choral Canada in 2016. Tim Dlugos texts for The Far West inspire rich and powerful music from Wadsworth, who describes them as charting “a trajectory from disease and darkness to reconciliation and light… The ending is not a happy one, but it’s a hopeful one.”

Special Guests:

Lawrence Wiliford, tenor

Luminous String Ensemble

Composers:

Jesse Plessis

Sonny-Ray Day Rider

Zachary Wadsworth

Tickets are $50 (adults) / $45 (seniors) / $25 (students)  and are available online through MRU Box Office at tickets.mru.ca, by calling (403) 440-7770, or at the door.
