OLMOS ENSEMBLE
OLMOS ENSEMBLE | MARCH 9 | 4:00 PM Currently in its 30th season, Olmos Ensemble has established itself as one of the premier chamber music organizations in Texas and has gained national recognition for its world class performances, broadcasts, and online concert archive. Olmos Ensemble’s core group now includes leading musicians from across the United States, including several with San Antonio roots. The afternoon features baroque and classical works by J.S. Bach, Haydn, and Mozart. SOLI CHAMBER ENSEMBLE AND SAN ANTONIO CHAMBER CHOIR | MAY 12 | 7:00 PM SOLI Chamber Ensemble with the San Antonio Chamber Choir will present the world premiere of Cancionero: A Ceremony of the Spirit for Small Creatures Such as We, an extended work for chorus, soloist, and chamber ensemble by Puerto Rican composer Armando Bayolo. Cancionero de luto (“Mourning Songbook”) was written in response to the May 2022 school shooting in Uvalde, TX, and is offered as an ecumenical music of grief - providing comfort without necessarily evoking a specific spiritual tradition or liturgy. The concert also includes works by Shawn Okpebholo, Marco-Adrian Ramos Rodriguez, and Blaze by Dianna Link - one of thirty compositions selected for SOLI’s signature 30x30x30 Project.
