This concert of modern choral music embraces earthly things in Frank Ticheli’s There will be Rest, before transporting us beyond the ‘dome of heaven’ with Ēriks Ešenvalds’ Stars. Navigate the dark and the light in the passion of Ola Gjeilo’s Dark Night of the Soul as well as his serene Luminous Night of the Soul. Features music by Jessica Curry, Eric Whitacre, Eleanor Daley, and Sally Whitwell.

We are delighted to collaborate with Michael Ierace (piano) and Aurora Strings for this concert.
