A Light in the Darkness

Join us online for our December concert presentation as we celebrate the hope represented by light in the darkness. The performance will feature the CRSP choristers singing works such as Palestrina's Tui sunt caeli, Abbie Betinis' Lumen, and the Canadian composer Ernest Gagnon's arrangement of Il est né.

CRSP has invited jazz musicians Frank Rackow (clarinet, saxophones) and Andréa Petrity (piano) to select three carols and Jewish melodies of the Middle Ages and Renaissance and then improvise on those themes. The result? Pure magic! Another guest artist on the video will be Weyman Chan, recent winner of  the Latner Writer’s Trust Poetry Prize, who is also a CRSP bass. Weyman will present two of his recent poems.

This is a free online presentation. We look forward to welcoming you to the YouTube audience on Saturday, December 18 at 7:30 pm on YouTube! Get cozy and join the friendly chat with fellow listeners.
