About the event

Join us for Ascension, where the journey of spiritual and sacred transformation is explored through new choral works. Bora Yoon’s “Light Will Someday Split You Open” invites us to awaken to a higher consciousness. Alexander Levine’s “Canticum Graduum” celebrates the ascent to divine unity in its world premiere. Osnat Netzer’s “Paths of Stone and Water” blends poetry and psalms to depict a spiritual journey. Roderick Williams "Ave Verum Corpus Reimagined," weaves an intricate tapestry of ancient and modern textures. Kevin Hartnett’s “De Profundis” mediates on the juxtaposition between desperation and redemption, and James Keller’s “If Only I Could Weep” poignantly expresses the yearning for emotional release. This performance invites you to experience moments of enlightenment through the beauty of choral music.
