Wilderness Cantata World Premiere

May 19, 2023 @ 7:30 pm - 8:30 pm

A Wilderness Cantata, by Doug Starr, is a work in three movements for vocal soloists, instrumental ensemble and choir. The Cantata texts are drawn from Old Testament wilderness experiences found in the books of Hosea, “The Allurement of love,” Kings, “Food for the journey,” and Job, “My ways are not your ways.” Each movement is preceded by a choral version of a familiar hymn tune that thematically represents wilderness themes. The hymn is paraphrased throughout the body of the soloists’ sections. Under the baton of Brian Gilling, the soloists are Katy Williams, Eva Rainforth, and Rich Williams, with the Chancel Choir of St. Paul’s Episcopal Church. The instrumental ensemble includes flute, two clarinets, horn, cello, and piano.
