Javier Farias - Composer in Residence

Westmoreland Congregational UCC
1 Westmoreland Circle, Bethesda, Maryland

Delve into the sounds of spring with The New Orchestra of Washington, the groundbreaking Alturas Duo, and acclaimed violinist Regino Madrid. 

Award winning composer Javier Farias' collaboration with the Alturas Duo and NOW has brought forth a charged orchestral setting of his work, "El Vuelo de tu Alma" (The Flight of Your Soul). Harnessing the folk melodies and robust rhythms of his home country Chile, Farias and the Alturas Duo pay homage to Chilean national hero Victor Jara in this inspiring composition.
