OUR AMERICAN JOURNEY
Chanticleer's 25th CD celebrates the music of America, from sacred motets by 17th century Mexican composers to shape-note hymns to newly-commissioned works on American themes. Our American Journey is a showcase of the rich traditions and also of the creative tension between unity and diversity that are inherent American music and in American life.
