"While thy branches mix with mine,
And our roots together join."
Shadows lengthen and reveal the beauty of the branches above us as we dance through these December days. The Horizon Ensemble is an orchestra that plays music by friends and music of history. Come join us on Sunday, December 17 at the Church of the Covenant for a wild concert to match this wild year!
First, we'll perform the world premiere of act Natural~ by composer and violist Elsie Bae Han. This piece features cellist Olivia Katz and twenty-one string players — not only playing, but also walking around and talking. We'll find out what it really means to act natural! Next, we'll perform Ludwig van Beethoven's Symphony No. 7 in A major, a well-loved gem of the orchestral world. Each movement features its own characteristic rhythmic energy, from the stately, severe Allegretto to the boisterous, rollicking finale. What a blast!
This is a pay-what-you-can concert, with a suggested donation of $20. We will collect donations in person at the concert, or you can find us on Venmo at @HorizonEnsemble.
This event is wheelchair accessible. No bright or flashing lights are allowed at this event. Please register on Eventbrite with your name and e-mail address. If you can't make it in person, there will be a YouTube livestream.
