Video courtesy of CIT Tolosa Choral Contest Draw on, sweet Night by John Wilbye (1609) Draw on, sweet Night Best friend unto those cares that do arise from painful melancholy My life's so ill from want of comfort fares that unto to thee I concentrate it wholly Sweet Night, draw on My griefs, when they be told to shades and darkness find some ease from paining And while thou all in silence dost enfold, I then shall have best time for my complaining.  less

In May, 2013, composer Ola Gjeilo spent 3 days on the Central Washington University Campus, joining the choir in recording 4 of his pieces. This performance of Gjeilo's "Luminous Night of the Soul" is from that session. The other pieces were "Sanctus" for a cappella choir, and "Across The Vast, Eternal Sky", also with the composer at the piano and joined by the Kairos Quartet. The final piece, "Ubi Caritas II: Through Infinite Ages", was recorded both in an unaccompanied rendition (how it is written and published) and in a version with Mr. Gjeilo improvising an accompaniment to the choir. This was Ola's second time on CWU's campus. His first visit was in the spring of 2011 and yielded 5 videos of his music, a wide-ranging interview with the composer and other bonus material...    less
