New Single Released
The first single from the upcoming album, Echoes of Grace, is being released today! This is a choral album featuring Patti’s Drennan’s music and I was the Chorus Master and Co-Producer of it. We hope will enjoy it!
Lux Aeterna Domine is an especially poignant piece as it was the last piece my Dad heard of my Mom’s before the tragedy that occurred in 2022. They were high school sweethearts of 54 years and he loved and heard all of Mom’s compositions. The ethereal and heavenly setting of this a cappella piece is quite moving in tandem with its lyrics:
Lux aeterna luceat eis, Domine,
cum sanctis tuis in aeternum, quia pius es.
Requiem aeternam dona eis, Domine,
et lux perpetua luceat eis, quia pius es.
May eternal light shine on them, Lord,
with your saints for ever, for you are good.
Give them eternal rest, Lord,
and may light perpetual shine upon them, for you are good
That's a wrap at EastWest Studios! All the recording and now the mixing is complete!
