JOURNEY TO FREEDOM 

Bernard Gilmore’s oratorio Journey to Freedom, a powerful contemporary setting of the Exodus, receives its world premiere June 9 at 4 pm at Soka Performing Arts Center, Aliso Viejo. Performed by the UCI Symphony and the University of Kansas Symphonic Chorus, conductors Dr. Stephen Tucker and Dr. Paul Tucker, twin brothers, join forces with world-class soloists baritone José Rubio, soprano Awet Andemicael, and tenor Genaro Méndez. A work that contemplates humankind’s eternal search for freedom, the unforeseen hardships of liberty, and the universal message of redemption, Journey to Freedom remains as relevant today as it was thousands of years ago. Also featured is Forrest Pierce’s Mirror Cantata with soprano soloist Sarah Tannehill Anderson. Ticket information is available at Soka University Box Office, (949) 480-4278 or online www.performingarts.soka.edu
