 | Description: | Covid-19 Sessions is an album by Cantus, released in 2022. The album is a classical CD.
In August 2020, Signum Classics began releasing Cantusâ?? COVID-19 Sessions. Recorded on March 17, 19, and 20 at Westminster Presbyterian Church in Minneapolis, Minnesota, the COVID-19 Sessions came together quickly as society began to shut down amidst the growing outbreak in the United States.
First released on YouTube and Facebook in the spring of 2020, the tracks racked up millions of views, leading to a series of digital singles . Available together now for the first time, the pieces span a great breadth of emotion, from joy to sorrow to wonder to pain. The choir add: "We hope you will find the performances themselves informed by the emotional states in which they were recorded â?? heightened at different times in different ways."
Composers:Traditional, Jean Sibelius, Hugo Alfvén, Ysaÿe M. Barnwell, Eric Whitacre, Billy Joel, Mari Esabel Valverde, Hildegard von Bingen, Ä?riks EÅ¡envalds, Bob Gibson, Abbie Betinis, Andrea Ramsey, Kathleen Allan, Chris Foss, Shinpei Nakayama and Franz Biebl. - WORKS BY SIBELIUS/ALFVEN/BARNWELL/WHITACRE/JOEL A.O.In August 2020, Signum Classics began releasing Cantus' COVID-19 Sessions. Recorded on March 17, 19, and 20 at Westminster Presbyterian Church in Minneapolis, Minnesota, the COVID-19 Sessions came together quickly as society began to shut down amidst the growing outbreak in the United States. The artists recorded these 19 tracks thanks to the expertise of members Chris Foss (audio) and Jacob Christopher (video). The COVID-19 Sessions were first released on YouTube and Facebook in the spring of 2020 and racked up millions of views, prompting Signum to release the tracks internationally on digital music providers like Spotify, iTunes, Apple Music, and Amazon Digital in higher-than-CD-quality audio. The artists write: "The inspiration for this project came during the week of March 8, when word began spreading of the coronavirus' presence in the United States. As gatherings became limited, it quickly became clear that we needed to postpone our spring program... As we made those hard decisions at home, our national touring schedule was simultaneously unravelling. Presenters faced the same looming challenges and concerns as we did, and they also began to postpone or cancel all of their upcoming programs. We soon found ourselves with our earned revenue sources, which comprise two-thirds of our budget, cut off. Amidst these concerns, a more fundamental uncertainty grew with the guidelines on social distancing and the prohibitions on large gatherings. How can we, how can you, how can anyone create a sense of community during a crisis like this? We recognized we had a limited window in which to offer what we could as artists. These recordings are the result of that action - we wanted to come together in a time of great stress and uncertainty and offer what we could to the world, our community, and each other."Recorded March 17, 19 & 20, 2020. |  | Manufacturer No.: |
