      I was very honored to see the production of Conspirare with special guest Patrice Pike. I had wanted to hear Patrice sing for a few years so I was for sure impressed. I found the sitting for two hours for the show without intermission a bit tough at times but the singing of both Conspirare and Patrice easily made up for it. I was glad I knew most of the songs where the audience sang along and must say that it was the best thing I had seen for getting into the holiday spirit so far. I hope when they return again you get a chance to see the well arranged and clever singing. Collapse

      Weaving themes of Christmas (love, hope, forgiveness, oneness) through program, Craig Hella Johnson directs Conspirare's Company of Voices through a well-gathered "collage" of song and lyrics that makes this concert at the Long Center very special. I've never experienced thousands of people together be so quiet and together with the artists. Breathing and coughing seemed to be suspended in orchestration with the voices. Conspirare expands what is the spirit of "Christmas" beyond the bounds and constraints that religious doctrine can put on the human soul. They literally give Voice (word and song) to the Soul, the Voice of God perhaps. The ALL GOD'S CHILDREN was particularly moving to a "Boomer" who has particular connection to lyrics in Marvin Gaye's "What's Goin' On?" and Joni Mitchell's "Woodstock". Patrice Pike did her "The Calling" during this segment. Her link-up with Conspirare brings an energy and spontaneity that is a wonderful mix with this great "Company of Voices". Collapse
