Eugene Vocal Arts: Shadow and Light; An Alzheimer's Journey

Eugene Vocal Arts & Eugene Concert Orchestra, with guest soloists and narrator

One of the greatest contributions the Eugene Concert Choir organization has made to the choral repertoire was the 2016 commission of this beautifully sensitive masterwork by Portland composer Joan Szymko, which met with audience acclaim and responses – “How did you know to tell my story?” Our world premiere performance and recording of this work won the American Prize and the video documentary The Story of Shadow and Light won Best Documentary at the 2017 Oregon Independent Film Festival.
