PROJECT : ENCORE of <str<strong>on</strong>g>Schola</str<strong>on</strong>g> <str<strong>on</strong>g>Cantorum</str<strong>on</strong>g> <strong>on</strong> Huds<strong>on</strong><br />
has a new logo and takes flight with greater prominence <strong>on</strong> the world stage<br />
We are thrilled to announce our stunning new PROJECT : ENCORE logo, for use by<br />
PROJECT : ENCORE composers in programs and <strong>on</strong> web sites, and by PROJECT : ENCORE<br />
reviewers in their professi<strong>on</strong>al biographical material. It is our hope that this will become a de facto<br />
indicati<strong>on</strong> of high quality as PROJECT : ENCOREc<strong>on</strong>tinues to grow. You will notice the symbol<br />
used as a footnote mark for two of our Journey of the Soul c<strong>on</strong>cert works, Final Litany @ and “Do<br />
Not Stand At My Grave and Weep.” @<br />
Notes from Dr. King <strong>on</strong> PROJECT : ENCORE<br />
Our interest in helping the many w<strong>on</strong>derful choral compositi<strong>on</strong>s we have been h<strong>on</strong>ored to<br />
premiere ‘take flight’ in the choral repertoire, via performances bey<strong>on</strong>d our own, was the genesis of<br />
our searchable database, which we proudly call PROJECT : ENCORE. These works are<br />
ɵɵ<br />
Premiered, but not yet significantly performed bey<strong>on</strong>d that<br />
ɵɵ<br />
Submitted, then vetted by a prestigious pool of c<strong>on</strong>ductors<br />
ɵɵ<br />
Uploaded (if approved) into the PROJECT : ENCORE database<br />
ɵɵ<br />
Available for discovery by c<strong>on</strong>ductors and organizati<strong>on</strong>s internati<strong>on</strong>ally!<br />
Each new ‘success story,’ of a compositi<strong>on</strong> found and programmed through PROJECT : ENCORE,<br />
c<strong>on</strong>vinces us anew that the symbolism underlying our logo is just right:<br />
The butterfly: symbol throughout the ages of rebirth, and a symbol for the soul…<br />
…interwoven with element of music notati<strong>on</strong>; suggesting ‘repeat’ performances…
