The composition, created while Messiaen was imprisoned in a German war camp during World War II, confirms the composer's enduring faith and is a testament to beauty prevailing over darkness. Sarah Rothenberg, DACAMERA's artistic director, will lead a short discussion on the work preceding the performance.
