Works of Britten, Persichetti, Lauridsen and Whitacre


The William Ferris Chorale, Chicago's internationally acclaimed professional choral ensemble and Artist-in-Residence at Loyola University, concludes its 42nd season with "The Secret Language of Flowers -- Music and Sweet Poetry" a program of four contemporary choral works celebrating flowers and springtime. The program promises to be all the sweeter coming out of a particularly long and harsh winter. Featured works are Benjamin Britten's highly imaginative Five Flower Songs, and Vincent Persichetti's Flower Songs, evocative settings of e. e. cummings's poetry. Morten Lauridsen's glorious choral cycle, Les Chansons des Roses, and Eric Whitacre's dramatic Flower Songs will conclude the festive and colorful concert. Renowned Chicago actress Marie Goodkin will intersperse the music with recitations of poetry by a variety of poets.


There will be two performances of this program -- May 3rd and 4th.
