Gabriel Jackson:
Airplane Cantata
Choral Symphony

Two works composed especially for the 麻豆社 Singers by Gabriel Jackson, the group's most recent Associate Composer. 'Choral Symphony' was written in 2012 and is an affectionate and witty musical portrait of the City of London, using a range of texts from the Romans to Rap. 'Airplane Cantata', from 2011, tells the story of mankind's long-standing desire to fly, from the legend of Icarus to our own day, and features a virtuoso accompaniment for pianola.
