This October the Christchurch Youth Choir is honoured to be performing Craig Hella Johnson’s three-part oratorio “Considering Matthew Shepard”.
Written in response to the 1998 murder of Matthew Shepard, a young, gay man from Wyoming, and the events that followed his death, Johnson seeks to “create, within a musical framework, a space for reflection, consideration, and unity around his life and legacy”. The work features a collection of poems, passages from Matt’s personal journal, writings from his parents, newspaper reports, and interviews, set to an array of musical genres, including theatre, jazz, classical oratorio, and gospel music.
Matt’s story and this beautiful work hold a lot of significance for us as a diverse choir of young people and supporters of the LGBTQ+ community. We hope to inspire in our audience the same fire, joy, and passion that this work inspires in us — a commitment to fight for a brighter future, together.
