Spirit of Light will be a sensational and seasonal musical experience full of joy, wonder and feeling when it visits Aberdeen this December.
A celebration in music and song, Spirit of Light combines the sacred and the secular in an illuminating new work composed by Tommy Smith.
Celebrated jazz vocalist Kurt Elling and the 10 voices of Cappella Nova will join the Scottish National Jazz Orchestra to perform new music inspired by the seasonal iconography of the star, three kings, Christmas Night, winter snow and the dawning of Christmas Day, and featuring settings of poetry by eminently humanitarian writers such as Liz Lochhead, Rainer Maria Rilke, Norman MacCaig, Robert Frost, Franz Wright, Jim Heynen and St Francis of Assisi.
