We celebrate the multifaceted nature of joy, including the unbridled exuberance of William Walton's "The Twelve," the sober devotion of Kevin Siegfried's "Shaker Songs," and the rich variety within Bach's "Jesu, meine Freude." As an added bonus, you'll hear three works by our Composer-in-Residence, the eponymous Joy DeCoursey-Porter.
