The 2012 Chorus America/ASCAP Alice Parker Award award goes to Coro Allegro, an adult volunteer ensemble in Boston led by David Hodgkins. The ensemble collaborated in a world premiere by Kareem Roustom that expanded the singers’ musical world as well as exposing their audience to a brand new compositional voice. Details about the award here. You can hear the final movement of the The Son of Man, with text by Kahlil Gibran, here. [vimeo]http://vimeo.com/24823869[/vimeo]
