Cinematogrpher:  Joshua Paul Johnson

In 'Rebirth,' Schola Cantorum on Hudson (SCH) will premiere SCH Featured Composer Ivo Antognini’s ‘Ave Maris Stella’ for mixed voices. The concerts will feature Bach’s Cantata BWV 4, Christ lag in Todesbanden, for which SCH will be joined by the Con Vivo instrumental collective. SCH’s Cantorum Young Singers ensemble, the Caldwell College Choir, under the direction of Dr. Laura Greenwald, will collaborate with SCH singers in five of the concert selections. As a special treat, Con Vivo will perform Bach’s Brandenburg Concerto No. 6, providing an exclamation point to the concert’s joyful choral conclusion.

'Rebirth’ marks the journey from a limited state of consciousness to a higher one as a kind of internal, personal rebirth. Also included is a new arrangement of the American tune, "When Jesus Wept, and Carly Simon's "Let the River Run."
