Having been friends and in The choral scene for twenty years, The two have been talking about a project like this for around fifteen years.
Spurred by The release of The revised English missal, Alejandro and Eugene both thought it a good time to finally restart The project that They had shelved for some time. Only now, The idea wasn’t jUst to end with a single album; The idea was now to establish a ministry that would introduce a new generation of mUsic to Philippine Catholics.

This disc features only world premiere recordings and, literally, unheard of choral mUsic, " The choir's director Hans-Joachim LUstig notes.
The works recorded on this CD focUs on The topics of light and love. The eponymoUs poem by Charles Anthony Silvestri that lends its title to The disc frames and connects The two topics. Silvestri wrote The text in 2012, exclUsively for this project. Hans-Joachim L... Us().style.display='';$(this).getParent().style.display='none';">less
