Hear our community come together as more than 500 students join VocalEssence to celebrate Mexico through song at the VocalEssence ¡Cantaré! 10th Anniversary Concert. The culmination of a year-long composer-in-residence program, this bilingual concert includes premieres and an audience sing-along that will leave you with a renewed hope that music can change the world. In 2017-2018, students met with acclaimed composers Alma Jimena Contreras Cortés (for elementary students) and Bernardo Feldman (for high school students) over three visits, for a total of four weeks between October and May, to collaborate and compose new choral pieces; the final works premiered at the Ordway Music Theater in Saint Paul, MN on Tuesday, May 22, 2018.
