Antonio Vivaldi: Gloria
Morten Lauridsen: Lux Aeterna

Artistic Director: Dr. Robert Eaton

Join the choir along with soloists at this Summer Sing to kick off this inspiring season of music by AVM that speaks to unity, resilience, and hope. Our 2025-2026 season, “Together We Can”, brings powerful works that celebrate the strength of the human spirit.

Antonio Vivaldi’s Gloria, with its distinctive melodies and rhythms characteristic of all of Vivaldi’s music, has an immediate and universal appeal. Morten Lauridsen’s Lux Aeterna is made up of five connected movements that contain references to “Light,” assembled from various sacred Latin texts. Composed in response to an immediate family member’s final illness, Lauridsen found great comfort in setting the music to timeless and wondrous words about Light.

Scores for both works will be provided.

Event is August 18, 2025, starting at 7:30 PM, at Congregation B’nai Shalom, 117 E Main St, Westborough, MA. Admission: $10 at the door.
