Cleveland Chamber Choir: Lux Caelestis -- A Prism of Sacred Music

Cleveland Chamber Choir: Lux Caelestis -- A Prism of Sacred Music

Presented by Cleveland Chamber Choir at Cathedral of St. John the Evangelist

The magnificent voices of the Cleveland Chamber Choir will present two performances of Lux Caelestis: A Prism of Sacred Music. Central to the concert is Timothy Kramer’s Lux Caelestis, a song cycle of texts about light from five separate religious traditions: Judaism, Zoroastrianism, Hinduism, Buddhism, and Roman Catholicism. Each piece illuminates different aspects of light, the eternal, God, and fire throughout: divine, powerful, creative, sacred, luminous, guiding, and loving. Featured as well are the ethereal Allegri Miserere, the mystical O virtus sapiente by Hildegard von Bingen, the engaging Cecilia, Busy Like a Bee by Cecilia McDowall and Gwyneth Walker’s dramatic And Joyful Be. Come hear the Cleveland Chamber Choir fill a resonant sacred space with nine centuries of transcendent music.
