An American Voice brings together a distinguished roster of performers to celebrate neo-classical American choral music and the enduring legacy of Randall Thompson. Released on Albany Records (catalog Troy0362) on December 1, 1999, this recording features the Roberts Wesleyan College Chorale and Ensemble conducted by Robert Shewan, with Barbara Harbach on organ, Barbara Dechario on harp, and the Roberts Wesleyan Brass Chorale. The album represents a thoughtful tribute on Thompson’s centennial year, spotlighting his influential choral works such as The Peaceable Kingdom, Frostiana, Alleluia, and The Last Words of David. The project situates American choral repertoire at the heart of concert halls and classrooms alike, offering listeners a window into a pivotal era of American music history.
