Washington Master Chorale: Illumination


The Washington Master Chorale opens its 11th season celebrating — with psalms and songs of love and compassion — the brilliant and soaring music of Baltic and Scandinavian composers: Latvian Ēriks Ešenvalds, Norwegian Ola Gjeilo, and Estonian Cyrillus Kreek.

With the mystical Northern Lights as a backdrop, our pilgrimage takes us from dark and uncertain times to a destination of enduring hope and beauty. We are reminded that fueling a spark of enlightenment is what will illuminate the world for us all.

Also presented are works by Anton BrucknerWilliam HarrisHerbert HowellsMorton Lauridsen and Alice Parker.
