About

Divine Art is delighted to present Sacred Joy, a live recording capturing a special LIEDER ALIVE! Christmas concert at St. Stephen’s Episcopal Church, Belvedere, California, in which lyric soprano Esther Rayo and renowned pianist and conductor Peter Grünberg presented a programme of carols both familiar and surprising.

For Rayo, this repertoire is close to her heart as she grew up singing in church, and her early experience of carols as lived joy shapes every phrase. Sacred Joy takes Rayo’s church foundation and broadens it, weaving in the Latin American heritage that runs through her artistry, so that the evening becomes as much a personal statement as a seasonal one, and a superb celebration of Christmas.
