https://centrallakessymphony.org/event/magnificat/The concert presents a vibrant journey through sacred and dramatic soundscapes, featuring Liszt’s stately March of the Three Holy Kings, evoking the grandeur of the Magi’s pilgrimage. Saint-Saëns’ Danse Bacchanale adds fiery, exotic flair with its rhythmic intensity and vivid orchestration. Taylor Scott Davis’ Magnificat, a modern choral masterpiece, offers a reflective yet powerful setting of Mary’s song of praise. Highlighting the evening is the angelic artistry of the St. John’s Boys’ Choir, whose voices bring a unique purity and emotional depth to the program. Together, these works celebrate faith, passion, and the transcendent power of music.
