Resonance concerts are always attempts to pay attention, to meet the moment. In this moment, we choose beauty, with messages of warmth, connection, and empowered voice. Choral singing offers a kind of existential reassurance that we cherish.
The concert title, Map in the Dark, comes from words by Jan Richardson in a piece by Susan LaBarr: “the luminous line of the map in the dark …” The big piece on this program is One With the Wind, with libretto by Larissa FastHorse and music by David O. The voice of one woman is joined by the inner circle of family, then the extended circle of community, and then the world community, in a sonic tour de force with messages of personal resilience and solidarity. Please join us. UCC Longmont (May 4 and 11 performances) is at 1500 9th Ave in Longmont, at the corner of Francis and 9th. The front door is on the west side of the church, where there is a small parking lot for people who need to be dropped off close to the entrance or who would appreciate close-in parking. There is ample parking on streets around the church and in the Longmont High School lot behind the church. The full name of the church is the First Congregational United Church of Christ of Longmont, it may show up in some GPS apps under that name.
First Congregational Church (May 5 performance) is at 1128 Pine St. in Boulder. It's on the SW corner of Broadway and Pine. (It's across Pine from the Museum of Boulder.) Parking in that area of Boulder is a little tricky, but it's Sunday and the city parking lots and garages, as well as on-street parking, are free. Accessibility: There are a few handicapped parking spots at the church but the best-case scenario if you need close access would be coming with someone who can drop you off at the entrance if possible.
