Credo: Spirit of Grace and Peace

The theology of the African American spirituals tradition resonates in many ways - as if to shout: "God, save us!"  Woven together with spirituals set by Moses Hogan, Craig Carnahan, Paul Weber and Joseph Jennings, choral treasures such as Mendelssohn's Psalm 2 (Warum toben die Heiden, "Why do the nations so furiously rage together?") and a monumental multi-movement work of Jean Berger, "Vision of Peace" create a sense of deep human yearning.  Also included will be music of Gretchaninoff, Urmas Sisak, Charles Marie Widor and David Cherwien.
