Music by 2007-2008 Chamber Singers at 2008 Golden State Competition
Welcome to the Acalanes Choral Music Site
Golden State 2009
From Ian MacEwan's Book:Saturday
There are these rare moments when musicians together touch something sweeter than they've ever found before in
rehearsals or performance, beyond the merely collaborative or technically proficient, when their expression becomes as easy and graceful as friendship or love. This is when they give us a glimplse of what we might be, of our best selves and of an impossible world in which you give everything you have to others, but lose nothing of your self. Out in the real world there exist detailed plans, visionary projects for peaceful realms, all conflicts resolved, happiness for everyone, for ever---mirages for which people are prepared to die and kill. . . But only in music, and only on rare occasions, does the curtain actually lift on this dream of community, and it's tantalizingly conjured, before fading away with the last notes.
