Lux Aeterna

The traditional Latin “eternal light” text is beautifully brought to life in this artful a cappella work by contemporary choral composer Ruth Morris Gray. With plenty of room for rubato and dynamic expression, this piece employs a variety of choral textures with an approach that is simple yet elegant. Efficient part-writing achieves occasional dissonance with minimal divisi, and a delicate descant illuminates the final moments of this superb setting.
