This nightsong roams through the a cappella literature with contributions on the theme of "Ruins and Hope". The quintessence: just as man carries within him the will to destroy, he is capable of reconciliation and confidence. As an architectural image of destruction and reconstruction, St. Peter's Church is the perfect concert venue for this program.
