 On Sunday, 25 October, 2009 we are privileged to have the distinguished American composer, Libby Larsen (b. 1950), worshiping with us at the premiere of a new congregational Mass setting we commissioned as part of our 125th anniversary commemoration. Libby will provide the composer's perspective on the litergy during our Adult Forum following 8:00 service and Coffee & Conversation following the 10:30 service.
Larsen, who was born in Wilmington, Delaware, grew up in Minnesota, studied at the University of Minnesota and now resides in Minneapolis. As a composer, she has achieved international recognition for her 400+ works spanning virtually every genre from children’s choir anthems and junior high band pieces to large-scale symphonies (five) and full-length operas (twelve).
