Join Contrepoint as the golden light fades and the warmth of summer gives way to the hush of autumn, join us for Twilight Songs: Farewell to Summer—a choral concert that captures the quiet beauty of the changing seasons and the peaceful closing of the day.

Through a rich and evocative program, the octet will weave together songs that reflect the lingering glow of summer evenings, the gentle descent into night, and the bittersweet passage of time. Featuring works by composers such as William Byrd, Percy Grainger, and William Cox, alongside traditional folk melodies and contemporary choral gems, the music will evoke the fading embers of twilight, and the wistful nostalgia of summer’s end.

With luminous harmonies and heartfelt expression, the audience are invited into a space of reflection and wonder. Whether through soaring melodies that celebrate the joy of long summer days or hushed tones that embrace the quiet mystery of dusk, Twilight Songs will be a moving tribute to endings, transitions, and the promise of new beginnings.

Let the music carry you into the night, where memory lingers and dreams take flight.
