Director Walter Chapin and Assistant Director Katheryn Currie lead Oriana’s 21 a cappella voices in Resurgence: songs of rebirth and renewal. This choral music is from four different continents, and is sung in eight different languages (English, Italian, German, Latin, Ukrainian, Hebrew, Mandarin, and isiXhosa) -- yet it all has essentially the same message: the human spirit, when inspired, has an infinite capacity for overcoming adversity. COVID precautions (masks, spaced seating, and proof of vaccination or negative test) will be in place.
