Vis Aeternitatis (“The Power of Eternity”) – and the question of what happens when this life is over – has fueled the thoughts of every prophet, poet, and philosopher to pick up a pen. Being more of the musical mindset, we crafted a program of aural explorations of the great bey0nd, with a thousand-year spread of composers ranging from 11th-century nun and mystic Hildegard von Bingen, to Baroque firebrands Barbara Strozzi, Heinrich Biber, and Henry Purcell, through to the present day voices of Caroline Shaw and Gelsey Bell.
Join us in the Crypt as we experience the timelessness of what comes after - whether it be the immortality of the soul, the eternal punishment of the damned, or the solace and sting of memory.
Hildegard Von Bingen: O Vis Aeternitatis
Gelsey Bell: Oy Dieus
Caroline Shaw: Cant voi l’aube
