SUMMARY:Día de Los Muertos with Dudamel
DESCRIPTION:About this Performance\nGustavo Dudamel leads a festive exploration of Latin American music for Día de los Muertos with Villa-Lobos’ progressive tour de force and Gabriela Ortiz’s 2019 Yanga. Her work for orchestra\, chorus\, and percussion ensemble is characterized by its use of African instruments and colorful\, multilayered rhythms. Ortiz says\, “[Yanga] speaks to the greatness of humanity when in search of equality and the universal right to enjoy freedom to the fullest.” Revueltas’ film score La noche de los Mayas digs deeper into Mexico’s ancient culture brought into conversation with the modern world\, bolting through thunderous\, dynamic rhythms and a flute interlude based on a traditional Yucatan evening song. Within the music is what poet Octavio Paz describes as Revueltas’ “deep-felt but also joyful concern for man.” \nThis performance is generously supported by the Frank Gehry Fund for Creativity.

SUMMARY:Glory to Glory (A Revival For Spiritual and Devotional Art)
DESCRIPTION:Eldorado Ballroom\nCurated by Solange Knowles for Saint Heron \nSun / Oct 13\, 2024 – 7:30PM \nFeaturing performances by The GMWA Women Of Worship Choir\, organist Dominique Johnson featuring Moses Sumney\, and the choral and piano works of Mary Lou Williams performed by Artina McCain and choir conducted by Malcolm J. Merriweather \nAbout this Performance\nHonoring artists who channel their musical crafts into the realms of faith and profound spiritual experience\, this program venerates artists who have reimagined Black devotion and praise through various expressions in spiritual music. Their work breathes new life into sacred traditions\, blending contemporary elements with deep-rooted spirituality. \nThe evening will also highlight the spiritual choral compositions of the late Mary Lou Williams\, a renowned jazz pianist\, arranger\, and composer who worked with legends such as Duke Ellington and mentored jazz icons including Thelonious Monk\, Charlie Parker\, and Miles Davis. After a three-year hiatus and hundreds of compositions\, Williams returned to music with a deepened Catholic faith\, creating the religious Mass Black Christ of the Andes and continuing to blend sacred music with contemporary influences. The New York Philharmonic’s Choral Conductor\, Malcolm J. Merriweather\, will guide a choir through these esteemed works\, while concert pianist Artina McCain will perform a selection of Williams’ spiritual piano pieces. \nChicago-native organist and keyboardist Dominique Johnson will guide the audience through a selection of gospel pieces on Walt Disney Concert Hall’s impressive 6\,134-pipe organ. Renowned for having the most-watched Hammond organ video on YouTube\, Johnson will showcase the organ’s historical role in worship and praise with a powerful performance. This set will feature a special vocal performance by singer-songwriter Moses Sumney. Sumney\, who was raised in the church by two pastor parents\, demonstrates the duplicity in spiritual devotion through songwriting and performance. The artist frequently uses biblical references in his lyrics across his two albums and centers anointment in his performance. \nCelebrating the innovation of contemporary choirs\, the GMWA Women Of Worship Choir (The Birmingham Chapter) will lead the Eldorado Ballroom through a powerful session of praise and worship\, featuring the iconic gospel anthem “Order My Steps.” Composed in 1991 by Glenn Edward Burleigh\, this song blends classical and operatic elements with the rich traditions of blues\, jazz\, and gospel. The GMWA Women Of Worship’s recording of the song achieved remarkable success\, staying on Billboard Magazine’s Gospel Music chart for ninety-four consecutive weeks. \n“Glory to Glory (A Revival for Spiritual and Devotional Art)” honors and celebrates these artists’ commitment to both their faith and their craft\, blending tribute and ministry in a powerful homage. \n\nSun / Oct 13\, 2024 – 7:30PM
