Path of Miracles
Conspirare’s Company of Voices
January 20th through 22nd
St. Martin's Lutheran Church

    Conspirare will perform the Southwestern United States premiere of Path of Miracles by British composer Joby Talbot .  The concerts will be performed on January 20th through 22nd at St. Martin's Lutheran Church in Austin.
      The mystical work was inspired by the famous medieval pilgrimage along Spain's Camino de Santiago (Way of St. James), a route that still inspires thousands of seekers each year.  The work's movements - "Roncesvalles," "Burgos," "Leon," and "Santiago" - are titled for the four main staging posts of the Camino Frances, the route's central axis.
     Path of Miracles was commissioned by the British choral ensemble Tenebrae, who premiered and recorded it in 2005.  The Camino is also the setting for current feature film The Way, starring Martin Sheen as an accidental pilgrim whose unplanned trek changes his life in unexpected and profound ways.
    Performances will be on January 19th at 7:30 p.m. at St. Mary's Catholic Church in Fredericksburg, and January 20th through 22nd at St. Martin's Lutheran Church in Austin, located at 606 W. 15th Street.  The Austin performances will be Friday and Saturday at 8 p.m. and Sunday at 3 p.m.  Tickets are $28 to $48 for reserved seating.  For more information, call (512) 476-5775 or visit www.Conspirare.org.
