Sunday, 10-11:45 am • free
in lieu of our usual Sunday service
Hear the story of Jesus in music, from his remarkable birth to his joy-filled resurrection. Christ Lives: An Oratorio is performed by a full choir, soloists, and instrumentalists. The music has a lyric quality that reflects the grace and refinement of classical music, unusual in modern compositions. The words are deeply stirring. Swami Kriyananda has written some 400 musical works, but for many, the Oratorio is his masterpiece. It’s a transformative experience, not only for audiences, but also for the musicians. This music is winner of three music prizes in Europe, and has been sung for the Pope in Rome.
“This music is one of the best gifts I have ever received in my life. I don’t know how to express my appreciation. The composer is a great artist. This music should be heard in every church throughout Italy.”
