May 2025: Toward the Light with Chicago Chamber Choir

Brushwood Center's Spring concert with the Chicago Chamber Choir embraces the beauty and freedom found in the natural world, and seeks peace on earth.

We look to light as a metaphor of transformation. The joyful arrangement of Vaughan Williams’s Lark Ascending explores the flight of a lark, while Schoenberg’s Friede auf Erden urgently seeks “Peace on Earth.” This concert explores stories about how we care for each other, and seek transformation in ourselves and the world.

Join Brushwood Center for a moving and transfixing 60 minute concert. The concert will take place outdoors, weather permitting, so bring your picnic blankets, food, and drink to usher in Spring!
