Rest
Experience a lush and evocative program to warm the soul and soothe your spirit in the majestic Cathedral of Saint Paul as we remember departed loved ones. A serene Prayer of St. Patrick by Kornelis reminds us of Christ’s constant presence, while Schnittke’s Sacred Hymns unfold with stunning harmonic power in a prayer for mercy. Luminous and profoundly reassuring, we offer the beloved Fauré Requiem with chamber orchestra, reimagined with interwoven works including Estonian folk songs by Cyrillis Kreek, the haunting Without You by Dale Trumbore, and a Jewish Prayer of the Dead, El Maleh Rahamim, featuring Beth-El Cantor Ben Tisser. Ken Burton’s Rest and music by Gorecki with soaring soprano solo round out this uplifting evening of remembrance and renewal.
