No Exceptions No Exemptions - A Musical Dedication

A song recital commemorating WWI brings to mind works by the poets and composers who fought valiantly for their country. + But the affliction of the War was not restricted to the battlefields. + There were those interned, those who stayed to defend their home, and those forced from their homes by advancing armies. + This recital draws its inspiration from those lives upended by the Great War, friend or foe, soldier or civilian. + Alongside established works, this recital program introduces some little known songs to more fully portray the humanity of those caught up in maelstrom.
