Music faculty premiere work at La Crosse concerts

The La Crosse chamber chorale performed works by Saint Mary’s music faculty three times this past week in La Crosse and Onalaska. Dr. Patrick O’Shea’s piece, “Unlock Your Hearts” (with Dr. David Leung on violin and Derek Clark on cello) and Eric Heukeshoven’s “And They Have Lies" were written as part of the “Words to Music” program.

Madeline Slade wrote the poem for Heukeshoven’s new choral piece. Janet Heukeshoven also debuted the piece, “Talerschwingen.”
