The Oregon Repertory Singers (ORS) is a mixed vocal ensemble in Portland, Oregon, founded in 1974. The choir performs a wide range of works from all time periods and languages, although over the years a special emphasis has been placed on contemporary music of the Americas. ==Recordings== Since 1980, ORS has commissioned and/or debuted 20 new works by American artists. In October 1988, ORS completed a four compact disc contract with Koch International Classics to record new American music. These recordings include * ''Berliner Messe'' by Arvo Pärt and ''Mass to St. Anthony'' by Lou Harrison * ''Missa Gaia'' by Libby Larsen and ''Echoes Between the Silent Peaks'' by Stephen Paulus * A collection of holiday music called ''The Glory of Christmas'' * ''Fern Hill'' by John Corigliano Other ORS recordings include a compact disc of ''Rachmaninoff's Vespers'' with members of the Moscow State Chamber Choir under Vladimir Minin. In 1995 ORS was included, along with Chanticleer and The King's Singers, in a compact disc ''Christmas Around the Country'', which was distributed nationally by National Public Radio. An excerpt from the 1995 Glory of Christmas concert broadcast on NPR's Performance Today was so well-received that two hour-long specials on ORS followed. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Oregon Repertory Singers」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
