Shedding Light on Lauridsen’s Lux Aeterna

Price range: $3.99 through $10.99

I would hate for any singers or listeners to experience this great masterpiece as just a succession of nonsensical syllables set to music. There is so much more enjoyment to be had when you understand the words.

Could ten weeks change your life? What if you spent those weeks all alone on a fire lookout tower in the Pacific Northwest near Mount St. Helens, with your only human contact from the once-a-week food delivery? That’s what put Morten Lauridsen on track to becoming one of the greatest living composers.

This book is intended to help you understand and delight in Lux Aeterna.

Description

My journey with his music began through my chorale and led to our latest performance of his works being Lux Aeterna. That performance stands out as one of our best, both in the quality of the music we produced and also in pure enjoyment of singing. I remember finishing it and standing there, hearing the applause from a very enthusiastic Sunday afternoon crowd and smiling so hard I couldn’t stop.
