Illuminations: Journey into Light [;ASL interpreted];
This year's Illuminations concert focuses on the journey from darkness to light through a very personal lens. Our musical selections highlight an internal spiritual journey, literally through the seasons, and metaphorically through struggle to peace and through sickness to health. We will present the winning entry for our Emerging Female Composer contest, Chiaroscuro, which sets text taken from Tilda Swinton's acceptance speech for the Rothko Chapel Visionary Award. This piece explores the darkness and light we carry within, and the balance of these opposing forces in shaping our perspective. Also on this concert is Stephen Hatfield's arrangement of Ödi Ödi, a folk song of the Tamil people of southern Asia. The translation of this piece is, "Millions of people run and run, constantly seeking, looking for the light that is within them." And we will end with Brian Tate's arrangement of Gate Gate, a setting of the Buddhist Heart sutra. Gate means "gone," gone from suffering to liberation, from forgetfulness to mindfulness, gone to the other shore.
Join us for a reception after the performance!
This performance will be ASL-interpreted.
