Frostiana – Poetry of Robert Frost
Randall Thompson was commissioned to compose a work to commemorate the bicentennial of Amherst, Massachusetts in 1959. Robert Frost had lived there for several years and the two were friends. Frostiana is the product of the collaboration of Frost’s poetry and Thompson’s musical genius.
Thompson, noted for his choral works, taught at both Harvard and The Curtis Institute of Music. He taught many well-known musicians at both institutions, among them Leonard Bernstein.
This recording of Randall Thompson’s great choral music includes Frostiana, based on the poetry of Robert Frost, Peaceable Kingdom, Alleluia, and The Last Words of David.

My husband and I listened to their Christmas concert. There was a wide variety of music. It was not just Christmas carols that have been played over and over. The performance was stunning. The entire audience was blown away at the professionalism of this choir. I recommend everybody go listen to them

The Colorado Choir is really something else. A family member of mine has been signing with them for years and I look forward to listening to them at each of their annual concerts. It's a unique experience worth enjoying!

Everyone needs the magic of music, and this choir delivers every single time! My husband and I love this group, and they sing all over Denver: at Augustana in Denver for Christmas, at Bethany for the winter concerts, and in Lakewood for the spring concerts. Tell your friends & family about this wonderful choir, what a gift they are to the Denver music scene!

I have attended the Colorado Choir concerts for the past 20 years. The Christmas Concert is so joyful and very rich in sound it always starts my Christmas Season. This Christmas I understand the choir will perform songs in French, Latin and Russian and during the Winter and Spring concerts will add a Spanish piece to the repertoire. This choir is spectacular.
