Back by popular demand – Phoenix Chorale returns to Tucson for another program of gorgeous uninterrupted contemplative polyphonic sacred music from ancient times to today.

As night falls, the ancient rhythm of the monastic day begins its most intimate chapter. This candlelit journey follows the offices from Compline to Lauds, from the last prayers before sleep to the first song of morning and through centuries of chant and polyphony written to guard the soul through darkness. Pleas for protection rise in plainsong and flower into radiant counterpoint: music of watchfulness, trust, and stillness, composed for the hours when the world sleeps and only the singing remains. As the vigil ends, darkness gives way to praise, and night resolves at last into the light of dawn.

This is the eyes-closed, no applause concert to just bring your soul to.

“The sonority of the chant reverberates in the body and soul like few other musical experiences and the polyphony from the Chorale was equally inspiring.”
