The ravishing sonority of Maurice Duruflé's beloved REQUIEM is the centerpiece of our May concert. Benjamin Britten's profoundly expressive REJOICE IN THE LAMB is a marvelous counterbalance to the Durufle.  Robert Shafer's recently composed SOUL OF MY SAVIOR was commissioned by Saint Luke Catholic Church and performed last summer by its choir at St. Peter's Basilica in Rome.
