Wintergrace: A Holiday Concert with TRANScend

This holiday season, TRANScend offers a moment of grace: for the things we meant to do, tried to do, forgot to. For the postponed resolutions, half-finished projects, the triumphs and the losses. Join us as we take a breath, admire the lights & ornaments, and wish for a little snow to even out our imperfections. This is: Wintergrace.

In this spirit of grace, TRANScend explores a variety of classical & folk songs, including unique settings of familiar tunes, modern choral arrangements honoring the winter season, and a brand-new piece composed by our conductor, Hannah Cai-Sobel, and arranged collaboratively by the Chorale. Taking its name from an Appalachian arrangement by Kevin Siegfried, our program features pieces by Oliver Tarney, Reena Esmail, Ola Gjeilo and others as a meditation on the profound beauty of winter, and the comfort we can provide each other through the darkest time of year.
