National Lutheran Choir Special - Title TBC

This special will feature Jocelyn Hagen’s acclaimed work, Here I Am, performed with chamber orchestra, members of the nationally recognized Angelica Cantanti Youth Choirs – Treble Singers under the direction of Philip Brown, and Grammy Award-winning soprano soloist, Sarah Brailey. Hagen’s work seeks the feminine, bringing to light the love and power God has bestowed on women throughout history and in our lives today. This piece will be paired with movements from Dixit Dominus by Mariana von Martines, an under sung, yet brilliant, Classical-era composer.
