“During COVID-19 isolation, singers from around the country — from those who sing for pure joy to touring professionals — sang this piece from their homes. Few choirs can gather these varied backgrounds and geographies, all singing together (while apart). I’m proud of what Schola Diffusa (Latin for “dispersed choir”) has made during these trying times. And after this, I hope that many of us can go down to the river and sing.” [Damien Riehl]
