“Praised be You, my Lord, through Sister Mother Earth, who sustains us and governs us."
— St. Francis of Assisi

Sacred Ground presents choral music that explores our spiritual relationship with the natural world. The program includes: An Apostrophe to the Heavenly Hosts for multiple choirs by Healey Willan; Canticle of the Sun, a setting of the Saint Francis of Assisi text by rising star Tõnu Kõrvits; and Hyo-Won Woo's Amazing Grace in which singers recreate the sounds of wind, water, and birdsong.
