Inspired and guided by Giovanni Battista Pergolesi’s treasured setting of Stabat Mater, “The Lonesome Road” touches human journeys to explore, to exist, and to triumph over suffering and pain. We are reminded of courageous explorers from long ago who eagerly sought new horizons. Reaching into the skies or into the hearts of others, we examine the human desire to always push on for a better world, especially those who work to bring peace to our battered world. We celebrate those who live in Canada’s extreme north, bringing laughter and light through tenacity and determination, and through their close association to the land which is beautifully captured in Jeffrey Ryan’s remarkable work, Midnight Sun Songs. Through these journeys, we return to the lonesome journey of Mary, the mother, watching her only son die on the cross for the hope of all humanity. Join us for an evening of reflection and solace as we follow the journeys o f those who walk daring paths of discovery.
