Past Performance
Perhaps his most personal work, Morten Lauridsen’s Lux Aeterna brims with light, warmth and humanity.
The five-movement choral cycle explores the theme of light using various sacred Latin texts, expressed in the simultaneously timeless yet modern musical idiom that has made Lauridsen the most-performed American choral composer today.
“I composed Lux Aeterna in response to my mother's final illness and found great personal comfort and solace in setting to music these timeless and wondrous words about Light, a universal symbol of illumination at all levels - spiritual, artistic, and intellectual." – Lauridsen
Other repertoire includes Bob Chilcott’s Silver Swan, Victor C. Johnson’s When Music Sounds, Dolly Parton’s Light of a Clear Blue Morning, and other pieces that highlight what it means to live, feel, and be.
