Description
iSing Silicon Valley, the inspirational Bay Area-based girls' choir, emerged from the darkness of the pandemic to find love & light in this recording of sacred music both ancient and new, music that transcends and heals, with glorious sonorities by turns rapturous and haunting.
iSing's spirit of diversity shines through on love & light. From O Sapientie, the ecstatic chant by Hildegard of Bingen to Sir James MacMillan's gravity defying Os Mutorum, Lux Aeterna by South Korean Guggenheim Fellow Sungji Hong and chorea lucis (dance of light) by California-based multi-disciplinary composer Kenyon Duncan - and many more - every work on love & light recalls an emotion, instinct or value that came to feel significant, even urgent, during the separation imposed during the pandemic.
iSing's collaborators on love & light are virtuosa harpist Cheryl Fulton, and the versatile GRAMMY Award winning, soprano Esteli Gomez (Roomful of Teeth).
Love & light is released in celebration of iSing's 10th anniversary.
"This is impressive. A largely contemporary, contemplative and of ten complex programme is performed with exceptional poise by the girls' choir and harpist Cheryl Ann Fulton. Sung ji Hong's mesmeric Lux Aeterna is the pick of several highlights." – BBC Music Magazine (5 STARS)
"the repertoire is contemplative in mood, with medieval chants and liturgical texts a constant theme, beautifully expressed by their ethereal, beautifully blended voices." – Choir & Organ (4 STARS)
