Hudson Chorale 2011 Spring Concert:
The program features the compositions of three prominent 20th century composers: Morten Lauridsen, Ralph Vaughan Williams, and Sir Arthur Bliss.  
The 1997 premiere of Lux Aeterna swept composer Morten Lauridsen to international fame and has earned for him the distinction of being the most-performed American choral composer of our time.  The requiem draws on references to the elements of light from sacred Latin texts, and the work has often been compared to the rich choral textures found in the Requiems of Faure and Brahms.   The Lark Ascending, an incandescent work by Ralph Vaughan Williams for violin and orchestra, found inspiration in a poem by George Meredith.  This piece debuted in 1914 and blends English folk music with themes inspired by Bach, Handel, Ravel, and Debussy.  The program also includes Pastoral by Sir Arthur Bliss who was appointed Master of the Queen's Music in 1953 and was knighted for his musical compositions.  Following a visit to the Italian countryside, Bliss collected an anthology of poetry depicting a Sicilian day from dawn to evening, and set these poems to music for voice, flute, timpani, and strings.
