A world premiere featuring more then 200 voices, with performances by the Gaia Philharmonic Choir and Yokohama
Chamber Choir "KAI" of Japan, the Minnesota Chorale and its Minneapolis Youth Chorus, the Allegro Choral Academy,
Metropolitan Symphony Orchestra and the Mu Daiko taiko drummers.
Ah Nagasaki: Ashes into Light is a three-movement, half hour cantata for chorus, vocal soloists and orchestra by the
American composer Robert Kyr. The work was commissioned by the Nagasaki Peace Museum to commemorate the
60th anniversary of the atomic bombing of the city. Text is sung in both English and Japanese.
This visionary work is a journey from the profound tragedy of nuclear annihilation to reconciliation and 'waging peace'
as a means of freeing the world from weapons of mass destruction.
