The Gesualdo Six
Lux Aeterna
Grief touches all of us at some point during our lives, affecting each person in different ways. The music in this programme is intended to illustrate some of these emotions, exploring musical responses to mourning and loss. In broad terms, we focus in on three perspectives: uncertainty, acknowledgement and hope. If you like, this is an uplifting sacred sequence for the souls of the departed, to be heard by those who remember them.
