The
New Jersey Master Chorale When
I think of the joy that music brings to my life and yours, I stand
in awe of its power and majesty as well as its delicate promoting of the
heart. This year's programming certainly explores the extremes
of music's magic. An American Portrait is the first of our
concerts. The music selected for this event reflects the bond that
the American Spirit provides. From the tragedies of war to the
cheering for Lance Armstrong, The American Spirit provides us with
something that most of the world never experiences. The words of a
Romanian newsman offer this to ponder, "What on earth can unite the
Americans in such a way? Their land? Their galloping history? Their
economic power? Money? I tried for hours to find an answer, humming
songs and murmuring phrases with the risk of sounding commonplace. I
thought things over, but I reached only one conclusion...Only freedom
can work such miracles."
