The Singing Rooms

Composer Jennifer Higdon is one of the most performed living composers today. Originally commissioned by the Philadelphia Orchestra, the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra and the Minnesota Orchestra and premiered by the Philadelphia Orchestra in 2008, The Singing Rooms, for chorus, orchestra and solo violin has been described as “one of Higdon’s best” (Philadelphia Inquirer). ConcertoNet.com says, “The emotional spectrum is almost staggering – from pastoral to cataclysmic.”

Ms. Higdon describes The Singing Rooms as a house where the violin sings, the choir sings and the orchestra sings. Every room is its own sound world.
