DCINY presents Spirit of Freedom, an unforgettable evening of new music, patriotic pride, and holiday joy with three of the most performed names in American choral music conducting their own work. Joseph Martin brings passion and energy to the podium for the Carnegie Hall premiere of his new work The Four Freedoms, a dynamic tour de force of orchestral power and choral grandeur celebrating our democracy's 250th birthday. Joel Raney conducts the Carnegie Hall premiere of his Sing We Noel, a five-suite Christmas collection that captures the joy and majesty of the season. Craig Courtney brings sacred artistry to the stage conducting a program of his most beloved choral works, including his famed trilogy Divine Encounter, an epic musical arc of Invitation, Offering, and Blessing.
