Volunteer Appreciation Day & Cantata
Join us for worship as we celebrate our wonderful volunteers who have been putting in work this past year, and hear music from the Cantata featuring: Songs for the Journey composed by Kevin Siegried
Songs for the Journey was originally commissioned to be a companion piece to Faure’s Requiem, a favorite choral work. In assembling the movements of Songs for the Journey, Siegfried chose texts with uniquely personal stories and connections. Together, the five movements explore similar themes as the traditional Latin Requiem – love, faith, and mortality – but in a non-liturgical framework, with poems and texts drawn from a variety of sources.
1. Into Your Hands – Psalm 31:5
2. When All That’s Left of Me is Love – adapted from the poem “Epitath” by Merrit Malloy
3. More Love – Shaker song text
4. Do Not Stand at My Grave and Weep – Mary Elizabeth Frye (soloist Kristen Wilcox)
5. Celtic Blessing – Traditional
