SUMMARY:Oriana Consort Presents - There is Sweet Music: Choral expressions 
 of comfort and connection
DESCRIPTION:“There is Sweet Music”\, a stanza from Tennyson’s lyric p
 oem “The Lotos-Eaters”\, extols the power of music to engage\, calm\, 
 and inspire — perhaps a worthy aspiration as we face the division and un
 certainty of our current times. We explore this theme through a cappella c
 horal works by Claude Debussy\, Ēriks Ešenvalds\, Daniel Gawthrop\, Robe
 rt Hobby\, Alice Parker\, Francis Poulenc\, Rosephanye Powell\, Salamone R
 ossi\, Camille Saint-Saens\, Heinrich Schütz\, Williametta Spencer\, Char
 les Villiers Stanford\, Randall Thompson\, and Ralph Vaughan Williams.\n\n
 Oriana Consort is a thirty voice choral ensemble based in Cambridge\, MA. 
 For two further opportunities to hear this Fall 2026 program\, please see

 piration from jazz\, folk\, and popular styles while remaining rooted in t
 he chamber music tradition. Through bold rhythms\, expressive melodies\, a

 e freedom and energy of jazz.
