"Night Lighter than the Day"

A Manhattan Christmas with readings and song

with the COMMUNION AND LIBERATION CHOIR under the direction of Mr. Christopher VATH

Presented by Crossroads Cultural Center

Once Monsignor Giussani, the founder of Communion and Liberation, in a meeting with a group of musicians said: “No expression of human sentiment is greater than music. Who would not be moved by a string concert? How can you remain untouched by the colors of a piano sonata? It seems the top of the top. And yet…when I listen to the human voice…. I do not know if it happens to you too, but the human voice is even better than music, and you cannot go beyond that. Yes, singing is the highest expression of the human heart and there is no higher service to the human community than singing.” So we are very grateful to the Choir of Communion and Liberation who will give us the opportunity, through the beauty of choral music, to delve deeper into the great event of Christmas, which marked forever the history of humanity.

Followed by outdoor caroling!

Free and open to the public.
