From an excerpt of Captive and Free, by Norwegian composer Egil Hovland, comes a hopeful, lyric addition to the choral repertoire. The serene music compliments the inspirational and reassuring text, Luke 24:29 and Phos hilaron, translated by Gracia Grindal. In November 1999, this work will be heard at St. Olaf Choral Day, and then again, in December, as part of the St. Olaf Christmas Festival. This piece can also be used during the Easter season or as part of evening worship.
