The Bozeman Symphonic Choir and Bozeman Symphony present Night & Light: The Music of Lauridsen & Shaw, a moving program of three choral masterpieces by celebrated composers Morten Lauridsen and Caroline Shaw, November 13–15 at Hope Lutheran Church.
Audiences will experience the breathtaking beauty of Lauridsen’s Nocturnes, a luminous work that explores the mystery and allure of night through a stunning tapestry of languages and poetry. Shaw’s and the swallow, inspired by Psalm 84, offers a meditation on themes of longing, refuge, and hope. The program concludes with Lauridsen’s radiant Lux Aeterna, beloved worldwide for its profound serenity and emotional depth.
“Our 100-member choir, together with the orchestra, will bring to life music that speaks directly to the soul,” said Choir Director Conor Whalen. “These works invite audiences on a journey that is both deeply spiritual and profoundly human, leaving listeners uplifted and transformed.”
Performances take place Thursday, Nov. 13, at 7:30 p.m.; Friday, Nov. 14, at 7:30 p.m.; and Saturday, Nov. 15, at 2:30 p.m. at Hope Lutheran Church, 2152 W. Graf St., Bozeman.
