PROJECT TWO
“Out of the darkness cometh the light…
the light comes with the hopeful, the best, and the bright.”
- Mark Hastings
DARKNESS TO LIGHT:
A Vox Christmas
This concert focuses on the transition from darkness to light. We begin in darkness, singing our beloved arrangement of Silent Night, which speaks to the need for peace and light. We close by singing Dan Forrest’s “Lux,” a multi-movement work that reminds us that there is always hope for light and peace, even in the worst times of war and strife. Join us for a concert that evokes the full embodiment of light (both earthly and ethereal) that we desperately need in our lives.
