SUMMARY:The Esoterics: Beasts and Beauties
DESCRIPTION:This December\, at the close of our 32nd concert season\, The E
 soterics invites you to join us as we present a concert “in triplicate
 ” – three smaller ensembles coming together as one to present the chor
 al music of the fascinating French composer Philippe Bodin. Inspired by su
 ch disparate sources as the sacred Roman rite\, the idiosyncrasies of the 
 animal world\, and environmental phenomena\, Bodin has created works that 
 flirt with the boundaries of singing technique\, and redefine how rhythm\,
  meter\, language\, and physical space are employed in choral music.\nA st
 udent of architecture\, piano\, and organ\, as well as a professional bari
 tone\, Philippe has a doctorate in composition from Yale University. Highl
 y lauded in his compositional career\, as both a Guggenheim fellow and a l
 aureate of the American Academy of Arts and Letters\, Bodin’s music has 
 won awards from the American Composers Orchestra\, Barlow Endowment\, Aaro
 n Copland Fund\, Jerome Foundation\, American Composers Forum\, and the Am
 erican Music Center. He has also held composer residencies at Yaddo\, MacD
 owell\, and Banff\, and has won prizes for his work in Italy\, the Netherl
 ands\, Poland\, Russia\, and the United Kingdom.\nTickets are available he
