Memories
Spring 2024
As we celebrated or 35th anniversary, LTCS commissioned a new piece to be written by award-winning Michigan composer Jeffrey Cobb, titled "Circle of the Seasons". This was the premiere performance of the composition. The work centers around the splendor of our Northern Michigan outdoors, how each season offers its own uniques character and beauty and references how Native People view the changing seasons, reflecting their profound imagery.
​
The commission was partially funded by memorial gifts from the families and friends of Sulane Hamilton, former Executive Director and singer with LTCS and Jan Smith, longtime singing member of the group.
