<h1>Malhaar: A Requiem for Water</h1>
<h4>Choral Arts Northwest, Timothy Westerhaus, Artistic Director</h4><h4>Reena Esmail, Composer-in-Residence</h4>
<ul><li>Saturday, May 11, 2024, 7:30 PM Bastyr University Chapel@14500 Juanita Dr NE, Kenmore, WA 98028</li><li>Sunday, May 12, 2024, 3 PM Bellevue High School PAC, 10416 Wolverine Way, Bellevue, WA 98004</li></ul>
Choral Arts NW&nbsp;presents the PNW premiere of Los Angeles-based composer, Reena Esmail’s Malhaar: A Requiem for Water. A rising star in the choral world, Reena Esmail joins CANW for a two-day residency, helping us craft Malhaar but also leading masterclasses on her music with choirs from Bellevue HS and Bothell HS choirs, and Cantabile from the Columbia Choirs.
For our concert, we share the stage with our high school and community partners, following their opening performances with Ms. Esmail’s stunning new work, Malhaar.
Highlights include:
<ul><li>Northwest premiere of Malhaar: A Requiem for Water</li><li>Workshops/concerts with Reena Esmail, CANW’s 2024 Composer-in-Residence and rising star in the choral community</li><li>Saili Oak, Hindustani vocalist</li><li>Ravi Albright, Tabla artist</li><li>Andrew Angell, percussion</li><li>Special Guests: Columbia Choirs Cantabile, Katrina Turman, director; Bothell High School Chamber Choir, Mikaela Rink, director; Bellevue High School Concert Choir, Andrew Jacobson, director; Newport High School Concert Choir, Nancy Fisher, director</li></ul>
From the Composer (about Malhaar): “In Hindustani music, Malhaar refers to a family of raags that beckon rain. As the legend goes, the greatest musicians could cause a downpour from even the most severely parched skies by the power of their song.
This is the inspiration for Malhaar: A Requiem for Water. As the drought worsened in Southern California, I yearned for a way to process the rising panic. The work intertwines texts from the traditional Latin Requiem mass alongside the work of Wendell Berry and William O’Daly, along with interspersed Hindi. It traces a trajectory of beauty and awe of water, the fear and devastation around its loss, an answered plea of atonement, and eventually a promise of a new cycle of life, as the water returns to the skies.
This is a hopeful requiem. While the collective loss has been so tremendous, we can still hold out hope that if we change our relationship to the earth, we might beckon the rain back.”
– Reena Esmail

The delicious adventures of Willy Wonka's chocolate factory light up the stage in this captivating adaptation of Roald Dahl's fantastical tale. Featuring the enchanting songs from the 1971 film, in addition to a host of fun new songs, Roald Dahl's Willy Wonka JR. is a scrumdidilyumptious musical guaranteed to delight everyone's sweet tooth. Roald Dahl's Willy Wonka JR. follows enigmatic candy manufacturer Willy Wonka as he stages a contest by hiding golden tickets in five of his scrumptious candy bars. Whomever comes up with these tickets will win a free tour of the Wonka factory, as well as a lifetime supply of candy. Four of the five winning children are insufferable brats, but the fifth is a likeable young lad named Charlie Bucket, who takes the tour in the company of his equally amiable grandfather. ​The children must learn to follow Mr. Wonka's rules in the factory — or suffer the consequences.

Cady Heron may have grown up on an African savanna, but nothing prepared her for the wild and vicious ways of her strange new home: suburban Illinois. How will this naïve newbie rise to the top of the popularity pecking order? By taking on The Plastics, a trio of lionized frenemies led by the charming but ruthless Regina George. ​But when Cady and her friends devise a "Revenge Party" to end Regina’s reign, she learns the hard way that you can’t cross a Queen Bee without getting stung. ​Adapted from Tina Fey's hit 2004 film, Mean Girls was nominated for a staggering 12 Tony Awards.
