Merry memento mori
The Asheville Symphony Chorus performs the seasonally apt “Music of Eternal Light” at Central United Methodist Church on Saturday, Nov. 3 at 7:30 p.m. ASC’s new music director, Michael Lancaster, conducts two dramatic choral works: Maurice Duruflé‘s Requiem and Morten Lauridsen’s Lux Aeterna. Both solemnize the passing season and winter’s approach while announcing the inevitable return of light and the rebirth of a new year. (Photo of Morten Lauridsen from Peermusic Classical)
