Vox Virorum: Playing the Heartstrings: Songs of Joy and Love

These are unsettled times, and sometimes what we most need is a pause — a celebration of the good that still surrounds us. Tonight our program offers that pause: a sequence of songs that reminds us of the many forms of love that sustain and uplift us. We sing of friendship, of partnership, of spiritual connection, and of the bonds that knit a community together.

A choir has a special power: like an orchestra adding a choir to reach a new level of emotion, our voices act as instruments that illuminate feelings words alone cannot fully capture. In these pieces we join with strings to broaden the palette of sound, to lift and elevate each phrase until it becomes something larger than the sum of its parts.

We invite you to listen with an open heart. Let these songs be a small but steady reminder that love — in its many expressions — endures, comforts, and celebrates what is best in us. Thank you for sharing this evening with us.
