Concert - San Gabriel Valley Choral Company Presents "Mystic Voices"
Saturday April 6, 2013 at 7:30pm
First Presbyterian Church of Monrovia
101 E Foothill Blvd
Monrovia, California 91016 Get Directions
San Gabriel Valley Choral Company Presents “Mystic Voices” on Saturday, April 6 in Monrovia. The concert features "Five Mystical Songs" by Vaughan Williams with spirituals and other inspirational music by Mozart, Lauridsen, Revicki, Casals, Dawson, Hairston, and more.

"Our 'Mystic Voices' concert explores themes of mysticism and spirituality in three parts. Part one serves as a mystical invocation, featuring music of various composers that invite listeners to be still, to be open, and to be transported. Part two features 'Five Mystical Songs' by Ralph Vaughan Williams, the main course in this feast of music and mysticism. Part three is an affirmation of the spirit in a mix of African American spirituals and gospel music."
- Zanaida Robles, Artistic Director
