The NEK's Halcyon Chorale, led by Lucas Weiss, will perform Eric Whitacre’s “The Sacred Veil.” A 12-movement work, and the most recent collaboration between Whitacre and poet/lyricist Charles Anthony Silvestri, “The Sacred Veil” is based on the experiences of Silvestri and his wife, Julie, who died of ovarian cancer at age 36 in 2005, leaving two young children. Including texts from Silvestri, Whitacre and Julie herself, the intimate, compelling score tells a story of courtship, love, loss, and the search for solace. A light reception with the musicians follows.
