About the event
SOLI Chamber Ensemble with the San Antonio Chamber Choir will present the world premiere of Cancionero: A Ceremony of the Spirit for Small Creatures Such as We, an extended work for chorus, soloist, and chamber ensemble by Puerto Rican composer Arman-do Bayolo. Cancionero de luto (“Mourning Songbook”) was written in response to the May 2022 school shooting in Uvalde, TX, and is offered as an ecumenical music of grief - providing comfort without necessarily evoking a specific spiritual tradition or liturgy. The concert also includes works by Shawn Okpebholo, Marco-Adrian Ramos Rodriguez, and Blaze by Dianna Link - one of thirty compositions selected for SOLI’s signature 30x30x30 Project.
