I'm writing to invite you to a wonderful concert in the coming weekends.
Social Band's spring concerts are titled "Jewel of the Night" and feature songs about the moon. The program includes everything from Renaissance polyphony by William Byrd and early Spanish and Italian pieces, to tunes by living folk legend Gordon Bok and the 1930s duo Girls of the Golden West, as well as a premiere by a living Vermont composer.
I hope you'll consider joining us for some lovely spring music!
"Jewel of the Night"
Musical Reflections on the Moon
People have sung to the moon in many ways throughout history. The moon is a companion in the dark, a milder alternative to the sun’s harsh rays, an instigator of madness, a member of the cosmic chorus of earth, sun and stars and a timekeeper of rituals and tides. Social Band, Burlington’s lively band of singers, dedicates its spring program to this “Jewel of the Night” with song and poetry.
