"Transatlantic" presented by the West Village Chorale

Join us on Sunday, May 18th for an unforgettable evening exploring the rich and complex tapestry of choral music born from the meeting of continents and cultures. 

Transatlantic draws on music from the old and new worlds, acknowledging the impact of European colonialism on Latin American choral music and celebrating the musical heritage of spirituals and gospel music in North America. Our program features compositions by underrepresented Renaissance and 20th century composers—including Modesta Bor, José Maurício Nunes Garcia, and Juan Gutiérrez de Padilla—contemporary American composers Arianne Abela, Jake Runestad, and Brandon Williams, and spiritual arrangements by Marques L. A. Garrett, Jester Hairston, and Moses Hogan.
