The Central Oregon Mastersingers
with special guests, Ubiquitous Dance Company

Saturday March 12, 7:00pm in the Madras Performing Arts Center, 412 Buff Street in Madras.
Sunday March 13, 2:00pm at the Tower Theatre in Bend.

Singing and dancing will come together when the Central Oregon Mastersingers, led by Clyde Thompson, are joined on stage by Bend’s Ubiquitous Dance Company. Founder and Director of the 15-member dance company, Dee Dee Burzynski, has created new choreography especially for this concert.

An array of music from the classic choral repertoire will be presented, from Monteverdi to Brahms, all the way to spirituals and stunning new works by leading choral composers of the 21st century. The featured work, performed in collaboration with the dancers, will be the powerful, three-movement “Lamentations of Jeremiah” by 20th century Argentine composer Alberto Ginastera. The combined groups will end the concert with a riotous take on Techno Dance music, “Nyon Nyon.”

The Ubiquitous Dancers will also present works of their own, including excerpts from Igor Stravinsky’s ballet, “Agon.”
