“I wanted to write a piece that captured the essence of exploration”, said two time Grammy Award winning composer Christopher Tin, “both the physical exploration of seeking new lands, but also the mental exploration of expanding the frontiers of science and philosophy.”
The first place you'll be able to hear Sogno di Volare is at the Cadogan Hall in London, England on July 19. It will be performed by members of Britain's National Orchestra, The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, The Angel City Chorale, Prima Vocal Ensemble, and Lucis. This performance will also include a rendition of Baba Yetu.
You can find out more about the event, including where to get tickets, at the Cadogan Hall website.
And just in case you need a reminder of Baba Yetu from Civilization IV, here it is.
