St. Francis Xavier Feast Day Concert
November 24, 2024 @ 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm
St. Francis Xavier Parish in Medina will present “Illuminare,” by Elaine Hagenberg, as part of its annual
Feast Day Concert, at 4 p.m. on Sunday, Nov. 24. The program is free of charge and open to the public.
“Illuminare” is an extended work scored for chorus and orchestra, with texts drawn from Sacred Scripture as well as the writings of Saints Ambrose, Hildegard von Bingen and Pope Gregory. According to the composer, “the piece takes us through a season of beauty and goodness that has been disrupted by darkness and confusion. But as Light gradually returns, hope is restored, illuminating our future and guiding us in peace.”
This performance, held on the Feast of Christ the King, will prepare listeners for the coming Advent season, and provide a backdrop for meditation on Christ, the Light of the World, and his return in glory.
