Mourning into Dancing is a ceremony in honor of All Saints and All Souls, featuring beautiful choral and instrumental music, inspiring text, and time to come together for a collective and personal moment of reflection and remembrance.
Joined by harp, organ, and cello, the LCH Choir will present stunning works by contemporary and Renaissance composers that seek to guide us on a journey out of the darkness of grief and into the light of joy. All are welcome. Donations to the music program welcome.
Selections include:
- Magnificat, swv 426, by Heinrich Schütz (1585–1672)
- Funeral Ikos by John Tavener (1944–2013)
- Phoenix by Peter Hallock (1924–2014)
- Faire is the Heaven by William Harris (1883–1973)
