soloist with Ensemble Altera

Join Ensemble Altera as we present 'American Voices in Song', a free community choral concert.

The concert features pieces by composers of color, including 'This Little Light of Mine", arranged by the world-renowned Moses Hogan, Billie Holiday's powerful 'Strange Fruit', a powerful commentary on our dark past, as well as new and hopeful arrangements of the beloved spirituals 'Amazing Grace' and 'Were you there?' that have become an indelible part of the fabric of American musical life. Alongside these selections will be a potpourri of traditional folk songs as well as arrangements of modern and popular works, including beloved music from Disney films, performed by Rhode Island’s premiere professional choral ensemble. Alongside this wonderful music, the evening celebrates and centers the diversity that is a hallmark of our complicated American heritage.

Silent films and dance, combined with free improvisation of the human voice, to spontaneously create live soundtracks in real-time.

An ensemble of singers (led by Angela Yam and Nathan Halbur), with percussionist Denver Nuckolls, explore the intersection of improvised music and movement. They will spontaneously create live soundtracks for classic abstract films, as well as for new works by contemporary filmmakers. In collaboration with dancer Cassie Wang, they will explore the physical movement of the human body in space, and its relationship to sound. This immersive experience will also include communal music-making.

Light refreshments will be provided.

Singers & Directors: Nathan Halbur, Angela Yam
Singers: Chihiro Asano, Barbara Allen Hill, Erin Hogan, Benjamin Kapp Perry, Juan Suarez
Percussion: Denver Nuckolls
Dancer: Cassie Wang

with Nightingale Vocal Ensemble

Join Nightingale Vocal Ensemble for Photoplay, a program that combines silent films with free improvisation. We'll explore absolutely free expression with the human voice to spontaneously create live soundtracks in real time, sharing an evening of community, movies, and collective music-making. All are welcome to participate.

Light refreshments will be provided.

with Nightingale Vocal Ensemble

On their 2023 debut album Composition Sped Up, Nightingale Vocal Ensemble explored the experimental frontier of vocal ensemble music through a cappella free improvisation. Nightingale now continues that exploration in PHOTOPLAY. A group of 9 singers will create fully-improvised soundtracks to a curated collection of silent films, as well as the winners of Nightingale's 2024 Short Film Contest. The films range in style from avant-garde animation to absurd comedy, and Nightingale singers will provide atmosphere, commentary, and playful interaction, taking inspiration from the visuals in real time to spontaneously generate visceral soundscapes.
The project is led by singers Judah Coffman and Nathan Halbur.

Our Midwinter Revels this year drops us into the colorful medieval Feast of Fools, where everything is topsy-turvy by design. The status quo quickly becomes the status disruptus as the body politic officially lets off steam. Rulers are temporarily deposed by servants, wit triumphs over power, and a fool finds himself steering the ship of state. On this shortest day of the year, what could possibly go wrong?  

Highlighting brass and early instruments, this musical feast will feature vibrant processionals, lively caroles, delicate choral harmonies, vigorous dances, and a full ritual serving of the wild and the holy. Of course, the familiar may come with a twist – we live in our own age of folly, and by some accounts, time is a fiction.  

Come sing favorites old and new and dance your way with us into the lobby of Sanders Theatre and out into the brand new year!
