White Light Festival

Estonian composer Arvo Pärt likened his music to white light that contained all colors, and saw “the spirit of the listener” as the prism where those colors could appear. Lincoln Center’s White Light Festival is dedicated to exploring that intersection between art and spirit across a number of disciplines. This year’s event includes The Psalms Experience, a series of 12 concerts featuring 150 psalms; the Monteverdi opera The Return of Ulysses; and Meredith Monk’s teaming up with the Young People’s Chorus of New York City for a multidimensional work that showcases the human voice.
