An enchanting choral journey through the night in the company of this outstanding ensemble. The evening falls with Rodney Bennett’s A Good-Night; dark nightmares appear in Mäntyjärvi’s Four Shakespeare Songs; we dream in Laura Mvula’s Sing to the Moon; and finally we awake to the sun in Lili Boulanger’s Hymne au Soleil. Glorious!
