顿补惫颈蝉91吃瓜网 Magnificat is a multi-movement journey through Mary91吃瓜网 hymn of praise in the book of Luke. In the second movement, the composer craftily supplements the traditional Latin text with a reflective English poem that reinforces Mary91吃瓜网 emotions. In a brief moment of introspection, soprano Dr. Meredith Johnson sings a stunning and poignant solo that separates this work from traditional Magnificat settings. Other movements feature joyous fanfares, daring solos, moving melodies, and modern techniques that create an almost cinematic feel.
Magnificat is sponsored by the Ambassador Series, a cultural outreach project of USM91吃瓜网 Gulf Park Campus.
