November 11–13, Cappella Romana invites you to more than a just a concert, more than just a world premiere. Robert Kyr’s All-Night Vigil offers an immersive, ineffable experience unlike any other, an escape from the noise–a balm; an opportunity to come and recharge. Inspired by the iconic All-Night Vigil (“Vespers”) by Sergei Rachmaninoff, Robert Kyr’s new setting in English of the All-Night Vigil will encourage you to meditate directly on the Vigil’s themes of light, renewal, and hope. The performances will also celebrate the release of the world premiere recording of this gorgeous new work.
