Reference Recordings is proud to present True Concord’s newest album, A Dream So Bright, featuring two world premiere recordings of works by Jake Runestad. His EMMY-winning choral/orchestral work, Earth Symphony, with poetry of Todd Boss, was commissioned and premiered by True Concord in 2022. Dreams of the Fallen, Runestad’s prize-winning work for solo piano, chorus & orchestra, features pianist Jeffrey Biegel and includes texts of the poet Brian Turner, a veteran of the Iraq and Afghanistan war. Turner states: "When the music lifts to its peak, when the choir sings into the high cathedral of the human experience—the hairs on the back of my neck take notice, my own heart takes notice, and I am moved once again by the fusion of sound and story. “Dreams of the Fallen” is a compassionate, emotionally-layered, elegant, and poignant work of art that I am proud to be a part of. " A Dream So Bright was recorded in outstanding fidelity by engineer John Polito, and produced by GRAMMY®-award winner Peter Rutenberg of Los Angeles. Recorded May 24-26, 2023 at Camelback Bible Church, Paradise Valley, Arizona
