SOLI Chamber Ensemble continues its season with Stories from the Voices Within, featuring two world premieres and special guest appearances by San Antonio Poet Laureate Andrea “Vocab” Sanderson and flamenco artist Tamara Adira.
SOLI will first feature the world premiere of Pulitzer Prize-winning composer Aaron Jay Kernis’ Elegy for those we lost, followed by Chick Corea's Children's Songs. The centerpiece of the concert will be the world premiere of San Antonio-native Darian Donovan Thomas’ ((HERE)), an extended work for SOLI, electronics, vocalist (singing, rapping, and narrating), and androgynous dancer. Thomas sources texts and song material from San Antonio Poet Laureate and Hip-Hop artist Andrea “Vocab” Sanderson, who collaborated with Thomas on the commission.
