Themes include food, of course, and also the longings for family and community that are the reasons we set time aside for such feasts throughout the year."
She added, "On one end of the spectrum, we have a splendid baroque setting by Pachelbel of the Thanksgiving hymn aEUR~Nun danket alle Gott (Now thank we all our God),' complete with brass ensemble. On the other end, we'll present the more aEUR~down to earth' look at feasting by P.D.Q. Bach in the choral movements from aEUR~The Seasonings' with slide whistles and kazoos. In between, we have both serious and satirical settings by Palestrina, Mendelssohn, and contemporary composers such as Ysaye Barnwell, John Rutter, Eric Whitacre, and others."
