White Acadia Fanfare
Boulanger Psaume XXIV
Copland Appalachian Spring
Haydn Autumn from The Seasons

The opening program of OSSCS's 49th season celebrates the Earth itself. We begin a year-long focus on the work of Lili Boulanger with her taut, vigorous setting of the 24th psalm ("The Earth Belongs to the Eternal One"), featuring the Seattle Chamber Singers and Orchestra Seattle's brass section. We then turn to one of the great American classics, Appalachian Spring by Aaron Copland (who was a student of Lili Boulanger's sister, Nadia.)

The second half of the concert features a staple of the OSSCS repertoire: Franz Joseph Haydn's The Seasons, a celebration of country living and harvest festivities. Audience favorites Catherine Haight and José Rubio join tenor Brendan Tuohy, making his OSSCS debut, for the autumnal portion of Haydn's final masterpiece.

This concert begins a new chapter in OSSCS's history, the inaugural program featuring recently appointed music director William White. Maestro White offers a musical introduction by way of his own Acadia Fanfare, an orchestral showpiece written to celebrate the 100th anniversary of Acadia National Park.
