The Counterpoint Ensemble was founded by legendary choral director and arranger Robert De Cormier in 2000, and based in Montpelier, Vt. Counterpoint is dedicated to performing choral chamber music and are praised for their “clarity, skill, [and] sophisticated musical expressiveness.” The July 17, 2022 concert celebrates the rivers and forests of New England and places more remote, including the Prelude to Benjamin Britten’s operetta “Paul Bunyan,” movements from a cantata by American romantic and New Hampshire native Amy Beach, and a setting by Joan Szymko of a Hopi text, along with a new work by Vermont composer Travis Ramsey and Vermont poet Jim Schley and an extraordinary musical reimagining of passages from Hermann Hesse’s novel “Siddhartha” by San Francisco composer Jude J. Navari. More information about Counterpoint can be found at www.counterpointchorus.org.
