SUMMARY:St. Mary Schola performs 'Nature's Voice'
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of the 800th anniversary of St. Francis of Assisi’s timeless “Canticle of the Sun\,” St Mary Schola presents a radiant program of music inspired by nature\, devotion\, and the sacred harmony between the human and the divine. Centered around the world premiere of Canticle of the Sun—a powerful new work for choir\, soloists\, and historical instruments by director emeritus Bruce Fithian—this immersive concert invites audiences into a rich soundscape shaped by centuries of faith and wonder. \nThe concert begins with Liszt’s dramatic “St. Francis of Paola Walking on the Waves” for solo piano\, echoing the saint’s miraculous relationship with nature. The journey continues with the earthy simplicity of 13th-century Franciscan laude from the “Laudario di Cortona” and expands through the expressive polyphony of Renaissance masters including Palestrina\, Gesualdo\, Dufay\, and Landini. \nPerformed with luminous instruments and angelic voices\, “Nature’s Voice” is more than a concert—it is a sonic tribute to a saint who saw divine light in all creation\, from Brother Sun to Sister Moon. \nDoors open at 2:30 p.m. Tickets are $35 in advance\, $40 at the door. \nGet Tickets
