Stars Over Snow

"Look at the stars. See their beauty. And in that beauty, see yourself."
Draya Mooney

"In a world turned upside-down, where everything was wrong, bizarre, you could at least look up at the sky and see normality. Stars that shone regardless of who won a civil war, or who should or should not be a president. Their light was billions of years old. They didnt have a care..."
Alex Scarrow, The Eternal War

"Each star is a mirror reflecting the truth inside you.
Aberjhani, Journey through the Power of the Rainbow: Quotations from a Life Made Out of Poetry

Our December concert offers a musical meditation on stars. For as long as humankind has been gazing at the night sky, we have been enchanted by their glistening light. Ancient people looked upon stars as gods and created legends about them. Modern Christianity continues to utilize the star as a key icon in its Christmas story. Stars can provide guidance, both literally and metaphorically, as well as symbolize wonderment (as infinite as the stars), self-fulfillment (reach for the stars), aspirations of greatness (be a superstar), hope (stars in our eyes), and good fortune (if the stars align). Their great distance from us puts our own mortality in perspective, while their brightness can be associated with enlightenment. We invite you to contemplate the significance of stars with us this holiday season and remain fascinated by their eternal mysteries.
