Tota pulchra es
At this year’s traditional All Saints Concert, Mogens Dahl Chamber Choir will celebrate the hope of light, which can only be seen in the dark. This late Sunday evening, when we remember those we have lost, is also a reminder that the classical vocal music emerged out of the sacred ambiance and the monks’ nightly chanted prayer. The spirit of the song does not seek to overthrow the silence, but rather to sing the duet with it, so that the silence comes forward and resonates along. The beauty of the tones points beyond – they lift themselves against the starry sky and eternity.
Tundra
Scenes from Gjeilo's majestic native Norway inspired this contemporary poem. Words and music are fused in a poignant, yet lyrical work with a pulse of its own. An excellent festival choice for mature women's choirs.
Ubi Caritas
Ola Gjeilos' Ubi Caritas sung in Hölö church recording our latest CD, Mes Très Chers Frères (CD and samples: http://www.zero8.se/mes-trs-chers-frres )
