GodSquad Clergy Prayer Breakfast

A heartfelt thank you to all our Faith Leaders who gathered for the GodSquad Clergy Prayer Breakfast during this essential time of prayer for our world, nation, city, and organization. We had an amazing time in fellowship, worship, praise, and prayer. As we invoked the name of our Creator, a renewed wave of POWER swept through us, revitalizing our hearts and deepening our commitment to the work we’re called to do. The best is yet to come!

Some people always amaze me – Gregory Gallo, a victim of severe brain trauma, yesterday completed his 50th marathon at age 68. Below are pics from mile 17 as well as the blistering cold of pre-race. He became very sick at mile 18, but arm and arm, he persevered just continuing to tell me not to let him quit. In just under 8 hours we crossed. Crazy awesome…. What an inspiration…. Some of the best parts of being alive are moments like these
From Gene’s Dad. GOOD AND BEST WISHES TO YOU AND YOUR TEAMMATE–D
Just thought i would share this with you…On Sunday, the New York City Marathon If there is is a source of true inspiration, my son’s teammate is running his fiftieth race and for my son,Gene, jr 26 miles push is more than a fulfilling a race for there is never a finish line.
Thank you, Paul.Truly an inspirational human spirit that’s worth enhancing in many monumental ways…including running in a marathon race that has no end, but rests with a peaceful gratitude of knowing who you are that has endured first, and then prevails beyond the finish line.
Hope to see you soon and revisit a good fellowship per your thoughtful ways…I am proud of Ej and for his teammate , a man who has a brain tumor running his 50th race and beyond. gene

Featured on October 18th beginning at 8 p.m, will be the world-renowned electro-acoustic SKYMUSIC ENSEMBLE, conducted by Moore. The program includes a world premiere, TO HIGH HEAVENS, and a recently premiered mixed media piece by Moore, THE QUIET PIECE, which includes a dancer and spectacular projections designed by Carlotta Bertolotto (Julie Taymor)

The October 19th concert at 7 p.m. features the world premiere of the dramatic song cycle GIRL OF DIAMOND MOUNTAIN co-composed and performed by Moore and Danish vocalist/composer Lotte Arnsbjerg. The piece is about a young girl who suffers sexual abuse and finds a degree of peace through love and spiritual growth. Also on the 19th the EKS jazz trio, led by Skymusic pianist J. Eric Johnson, will play a program featuring Johnson’s variations on works by Moore and the late Skymusic Ensemble violinist Leroy Jenkins. Moore founded the Skymusic Ensemble in 1980 and has been composing works for the group ever since.

While many Carman Moore works (for example the 1993 LOVE NOTES TO CENTRAL PARK performed in three park spaces with the Pearson/Widrig Dance company) have featured performance in alternative spaces using mixed-media, many of his works have been commissioned and played by world-famous establishment ensembles such as the N.Y. Philharmonic (Pierre Boulez), San Francisco Symphony (Seiji Ozawa), The Cleveland Orchestra (Isaiah Jackson), and the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center. Recently his CONCERTO FOR ORNETTE was performed by The New Juilliard Ensemble orchestra.

These concerts offer a rare occasion to hear a diversity of Moore’s compositions and two world premieres.

Please visit www.carmanmoore.com for more information about the composer.
