Every corner of the magnificent First Baptist Church will be engaged by the 120-voice Mendelssohn Club chorus, solo voices and chamber orchestra, bringing Arthur Honegger’s King David to exciting life. René Morax’s dramatic libretto for this Old Testament story compelled Honegger to write the equally dramatic symphonic psalm in 1923.
The concert opens with the world premiere of Vox Humana, for chorus and electroacoustic sound, by Philadelphian Maurice Wright
