ORATORIO CHORALE AND THE BOWDOIN COLLEGE CHORUS PRESENT: UNFORESEEN GRACE

FRANK MARTIN: MASS FOR DOUBLE CHOIR
Emily Isaacson and Logan GILLIS: UNFORESEEN GRACE (WORLD PREMIERE)

Friday, November 5, 2021 at 5:00 p.m. – City Hall and Lincoln Park

Frank Martin: Mass for Double Choir
For Frank Martin (1890–1974), making art and praying were private activities of faith, not a public act or a musical performance. Thus, Mass for Double Choir sat in a drawer for over 40 years until Martin finally allowed it to be performed in 1963. Mass for Double Choir is now recognized as one of the great masterpieces of twentieth-century choral music.

Emily Isaacson and Logan Gillis: Unforeseen Grace
In this self-directed concert, audiences are invited to create their own immersive sonic experience as they travel through an outdoor space amid 70 performers. Original music by Emily Isaacson and Logan Gillis; staging by Kevin Newbury.
