Words by Maya Angelou and others
Savor words by Maya Angelou, e.e. cummings, Langston Hughes, Victor Hugo, Octavio Paz, and William Shakespeare, among others, when the Choral Society of Pensacola opens its 2023-2024 season with "Words," an eclectic evening inspired by the power of language. The 100-voice volunteer chorus will be conducted by artistic director Peter Steenblik with Hyunjoo Kim at the keyboard.
One of Pensacola Opera’s Jan Miller Studio Artists, tenor Zachary Taylor, will perform as guest soloist in the centerpiece of the concert, Joan Szymko’s “From Such a Dizzy Height,” a setting of romantic excerpts from letters and other writings of Bella and Marc Chagall.
