Moving choral music illuminates mystical texts

Let's talk about death. Not about saying goodbye forever, but about the moment we exchange this life for something else. Between Two Lights aims to make death tangible, via a ritual in which we carefully expose ourselves to the idea of death. Directed by Concertgebouw Creator Aïda Gabriëls and Tido Visser and set to music by Huang Ruo, this programme brings us closer to reconciliation with our own mortality.
