With The Sacred Veil, Eric Whitacre, the Master Chorale’s Swan Family Artist-in-Residence, has created a powerful score for Silvestri’s heartfelt poetry exploring the fragile line between love and loss.
Instilled with comfort, Maurice Duruflé’s beloved Requiem leaves listeners with a lingering mood of confident hope while Dale Trumbore’s “secular requiem” How to Go On finds beauty and release in the embrace of everyday life, and ultimately offers up solace.
Grant Gershon and the Los Angeles Master Chorale draw back the curtain to revel in the most theatrical blockbusters of stage and screen.
