Description:
Otto M. Schwarz was asked by a friend to compose a chorale for the funeral of his child. Lux Aeterna (The Eternal Light) is actually part of the Mass for the Dead, but in this composition it has no reference to the original Latin text. People with near-death experiences often report a bright light. The music moves back and forth between sad, hopeful and pleading passages and poses questions that cannot be answered. However, it ends in a conciliatory major chord that reflects the calm and warmth of this light that promises salvation.
