Songs of America, a signature repertoire for True Concord, includes African-American Spirituals arranged by Moses Hogan and William Grant Still, folk songs by Stephen Foster, including Beautiful Dreamer and Jeanie with the Light Brown Hair and music of the Sonoran Desert. New this season, True Concord selected poetry through a nation-wide competition with assistance from the UA Poetry Center. The inaugural winning poet is Janet Ruth, whose poem will be set to music by Nicholas Ryan Kelly, the latest winner of the Stephen Paulus Emerging Composers Competition.
