An intense hell-fire blazes throughout Day of Wrath.  Though it begins quietly and mysteriously with the haunting Dies Irae chant, the audience is swept into a picture of hell painted by light and sound as the piano viciously churns-out its relentless melody against the turmoil of the choir... Driving to the ultimate end: Understanding whom we are to fear.

 "But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, which after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear him."

Luke 12:5 (King James Version)

"Day of Wrath is a masterpiece and a huge, huge hit."  - Mr. Anthony Trecek-King, Artistic director, Boston Children's Chorus.

Day of Wrath is a performance not soon forgotten.   Choreographed lights and sound add to the illusion of hellfire and brimstone, while cello harmonics sail above the choir with an eerie crystalline presence.  An opener, a closer... A crowd pleaser for sure.  If you want to break-up the praise and worship a bit, Day of Wrath will certainly wake up the audience.
