Clerestory:Harmony and Ivory April 15, 2012

Bay Area ensemble Clerestory is joined by Kymry Esainko, principal pianist for the Santa Rosa Symphony, for Harmony & Ivory, a lively musical conversation between a piano and nine men's voices. The 75 minute performance includes 19th century German songs by Brahms and Wolf as well as the nostalgic tunes of the World War II era vocal group, Comedian Harmonists. The concert continues with lush harmonies of newly resurgent Dutch composer Henk Badings and a song of hope by David Goodman dedicated to the people of Nicaragua, and concludes with American spirituals and jazz standards.
