From the folk song, to the spiritual, to jazz and musical theater, “The Great American Songbook”, celebrates American music through some of its greatest pioneers, including songwriters, song-collectors, orchestrators, arrangers, and conductors.
Clearfield Choral Society will pay tribute to Aaron Copland, who is seen as a forerunner of establishing the American sound through his study of American life in the west. We celebrate those composers that contributed to what is known as the Great American Songbook, such as the memorable styles of Irving Berlin and the famous duo Rodgers & Hammerstein. We celebrate the heritage of the spiritual, the folk hymn, and the folksong, through the musical stylings of Moses Hogan, Norman Luboff, and especially through the work of famous conductor and arranger, Alice Parker, among others.
Under the direction of Jacob Mandell.
This performance will take place at the Presbyterian Church of Clearfield, located at 119 N Second Street in Downtown Clearfield, PA.
