COLUMBIA PRO CANTARE invites YOU to join us in celebrating AMERICA’S 250 YEARS OF INDEPENDENCE with this newly-commissioned work which includes:
"Redeem the Dream," composed by Dr. Brandon A. Boyd with text based on Langston Hughes’ poem "Let America Be America Again." The poem reflects on the gap between the ideals of American democracy as articulated in the Declaration of Independence and the reality experienced by many people throughout our history. And "US," composed by Michael Bussewitz-Quarm, whose text is inspired by Richard Haass’ book The Bill of Obligations: The Ten Habits of Good Citizens, offering a musical call to "We, the people" to participate in renewing
American democracy.

As a choral group, the Columbia Pro Cantare raises its voice in song, trying our best to communicate stories about the human condition, whether it’s about joy, love, hope, pain or sorrow. It is now more important to sing loudly and unambiguously, screaming to the rafters that message that we must ALL TAKE A STAND AGAINST RACISM. Stand and sing with us these songs which remind us of the universal human spirit and encourage us to pursue life, liberty, JUSTICE and FREEDOM for all.


Lester Lynch, baritone
