Studium Chorale: Silent Steps

 

With 'Silent Steps', chamber choir Studium Chorale presents a program that focuses on a special listening experience. There is music that brings peace and balance. A speaker-poet will always introduce the atmosphere/interpretation of the pieces with his or her own words or with a poetic translation. The composition Silent Steps by Vincent Ghadimi with lyrics by Rabindrath Tagore was the starting point for this program. Endless time on a text by the same Tagore completes the circle.
