Declaration: Songs of Democracy, Voices of Hope
Jul 1, 2026
Description
Curator and pianist Lara Downes tackles the question of what it means to be an American today in Declaration: Songs of Democracy, Voices of Hope, which features world premieres by three major composers. Valerie Coleman presents Life, a work for solo piano; Arturo O'Farrill offers Liberty; and Christopher Tin closes with The Pursuit of Happiness. The last two compositions are performed by the American Composers Orchestra, under the baton of Eric Jacobsen, with the aid of artists who represent a wide range of the American experience. Guests include jazz bassist Christian McBride; vocalists Kurt Elling, Ekep Nwell and Aoife O’Donovan; singer-songwriter Carrie Rodriguez; breakout bluegrass star Wyatt Ellis; and Tuskegee University’s historic Golden Voices Concert Choir.
