Elgar ha sido un descubrimiento y esta una pieza fundamental, maravillosa, romántica, fílmica y a la vez trascendente, otra forma de conectar, otra oración ❤❤❤

What a privilege and a thrill it was to hear this live, first in an empty cathedral during rehearsal, then as one of a thousand listeners at the July 18 concert. Of all the pieces on the program, Lux Aeterna was the "sister" piece to my Ave Maria, both being choral adaptations of orchestral and (in my case) piano masterpieces. What a rich, deeply moving sound Nicol Matt has produced from these amazing singers. Thank you!

Absolutely beautiful, thank you so much for this. Everything in this performance conspired to bring perfection. Each and every single singer in this choir. The conductor. The venue. The acoustics. Simply divine (no pun intended)

The Music was brilliantly composed by Edward Elgar, the words to the Lux Aeterna were added much later; written by György Ligeti in 1966.
