All Becomes the Infinite explores how we identify with ourselves and the world around us. This program marks CCC’s first exploration into electro-acoustic music, exploring new sound worlds and ideas as we seek to understand how we all fit into the world together. 

Other works by Jacobus de Kerle, Bernat Vivancos, Maurice Durufle, Randal Thompson, Maryam Giraud, and Joseph Jennings explore aspects of our life together – the mystery, the joy, the peace, and the longing.

The program will close with an invitation to all gather together in celebration, with a new arrangement of Shall we gather at the River for choir and barbershop quartet.
