Conductor Warren Cook led the orchestra, joined by the following choirs: Artios of Greenville Chorale, Bangor Area High School Slate Chorale, Bob Jones Academy Concert Choir, Bob Jones University Choirs, Central Regional High School Choir of Bayville New Jersey, and Rivertree Singers.īeginning with an almost-ethereal introduction by the strings, the piece had a delicacy in the instruments as well as the chorus, whose gentle voices added to the building texture like ripples on a pond that leave the surface unbroken. Opening the concert, and setting the tone for much of the afternoon, was Dan Forrest’s 2013 “Requiem For the Living.” This modern spiritual work rearranges the traditional requiem form to create a poignant ode for the alive.
