Finding Light

Blending iconic choral works with music by today’s most compelling composers, Finding Light is a program centered on the theme of prayer. From the Renaissance exquisite writing of Sheppard’s Libera nos to the luminous sonorities of Lauridsen’s Ubi Caritas and Dubra’s Oculus non vidit, each work offers a distinct meditation on mercy, hope, and transcendence. Highlights include Randall Thompson’s timeless Alleluia and Stephen Paulus’ Hymn to the Eternal Flame, alongside deeply moving contemporary offerings such as Hanna Havrylets’ Prayer and Þóra Marteinsdóttir’s Nú legg ég þér í lófa. Together, these works invite listeners into a space of reflection and renewal, where timeless devotions converse with contemporary longings—and where voices join in a collective search for light.
