VCC's own accompanist and internationally known concert pianist, Daniel Glover, will share his masterful talent at the piano in this annual benefit concert for the chorale. The concert will feature works by Liszt commemorating the 200th anniversary of his birth. Additionally, Mr. Glover will play Schumann's First Piano Sonata, Bartok's Suite, and works by the lesser-known Russian composer Sergei Liapunov, written in the style of Liszt, one of which will be his stirring Elegy in Memory of Liszt.

We will be joined by singers from the Ohlone Chamber Singers and the San Francisco Concert Chorale for this memorial to the tragic events of September 11th, 2001. The concert will feature Arthur Honegger's Le Roi David (King David), which was composed in 1921 as incidental music for Rene Morax's play by the same name. The work established Honegger's reputation as a composer. Two years later he added Morax's libretto to create the symphonic psalm that you will hear in our performance. The work features an orchestra and soloists as well as a narrator, who will help tell the story of King David's life. The concert will also feature Herbert Howell's Requiem, which was composed in 1936. This work will be unaccompanied. Click here to learn about ordering tickets for each concert.

This concert features guest artist Anders Paulsson, a Swedish Saxophonist. He is noted for the sensitivity of his interpretations that incorporate a rich jazz flavor. He has performed as a soloist in 20 countries and has made over 13 CDs. One reviewer says that his music is both stimulating and makes you feel good! We think you will agree. As a composer he is well-known for his arrangements of Deep River, Bright Morning Star, and Amazing Grace. In our concert you will also hear the world premiere of his arrangement of When the Saints Go Marching In.
