The group will also perform at the National Palace of Culture and the San Pedro Nolasco church, in Ciudad San Cristóbal, zone 8 of Mixco.
Classic FM describes Lux Aeternaby Morten Lauridsen, like a calm and light-filled requiem. After its premiere, a critic of The Times He called it “a classic of new American choral composition” and stated that “the structures of the old world and the spirit of the new are intertwined in an artfully written score, at once sensual and austere.”
