Sing for the Earth!
A Canadian Choral Celebration
Honouring the 50th Anniversary of the Canadian Music Centre

Sunday March 28, 2010 at 7:00 p.m. at Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church, Toronto

Toronto’s Elmer Iseler Singers and conductor Lydia Adams welcome spring with a rousing Canadian choral celebration honouring the 50th Anniversary of the Canadian Music Centre. The concert – Sunday March 28th at 7:00 p.m. at Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church – includes … Hussein Janmohamed’s Nūrun’ alā Nūr/Light Upon Light! (commissioned by Canada Council for the Arts).

-snip-

Vancouver composer Hussein Janmohamed explores ‘Surah An-Nur’ (The verse of Light) from the Qur’an. Nūrun’ alā Nūr/Light Upon Light! is an exploration, a coming in and out of clarity, in and out of understanding and in and out of unison with multiplicity. It is all about trying new things, expanding one’s being and thought into the realm of the divine.
