V. Dirge For Two Veterans

This was a performance done in 2006 in combination with 3 high school choirs: a choir from Utah, Texas, and Haslett, MI. All three choirs were invited by Carnegie Hall to sing with Dr. Craig Jessop conducting. The orchestra is from St. Luke's. I will update the names of the baritone soloist and soprano soloist next time i have access to the jewel case.

Seeing as i was in the Haslett choir, all i can say is the experience was one i'll never forget. This is truly excellent music, music that is greater in it's sum then in it's individual parts.

I was there with the Martin High School Choir (Arlington, TX). That was a moving night for everybody, and I still have the whole night to my memory.
