Opus 7 Vocal Ensemble performs Centennial Celebrations
Join Opus 7 in celebrating the centennial of Seattles Blessed Sacrament Church in the beautifully restored brick and wood interior of this historic landmark. Its founding year was 1908, the same year in which our featured centennial composers were born: Hugo Distler, Elliott Carter, and Olivier Messiaen. Distler is represented by his exuberant Lobe den Herrn, his joyful Es ist das Heil uns kommen her, and his monumental Singet dem Herrn ein neues Lied. To celebrate the 100th birthday of esteemed American composer Elliott Carter, Opus 7 performs his vivid setting of Emily Dickinsons poem, Musicians Wrestle Everywhere, while Messiaens beloved mystical meditation, O Sacrum Convivium, honors his centennial year.

The celebration continues with works written in 1908 by Sibelius and Charles Wood, and we honor Blessed Sacrament itself with works by Rheinberger, Rihards Dubra, and Cesar Francks beloved Panis Angelicus. Other celebratory works include Laudate Dominum by Danish composer Vagn Holmboe and William Mathias virtuosic Laetentur Coeli, plus works by Stanford, Rimsky-Korsakov (d. 1908), Peter Hallock, and Alice Parker. Dont miss this evening of uplifting music performed in the beauty of Blessed Sacrament Church.
