Program Notes
Another exciting and multifaceted selection from Ryan Nowlin! In three movements, As We Forgive opens with a fearful invocation of temptation; moves on to a beautiful, moving portrait of forgiveness; and closes with pure, effervescent joy in freedom. An unforgettably vivid and inspirational musical story, this tour-de-force will take the ensemble through a shifting landscape of moods, ultimately ending in heroic triumph.
