Upcoming Concert: Illluminate! Sunday, April 26th 3:00 PM Reception 4:30 PM

The Presbyterian Church of Barrington’s Music on the Hill Concert series will present a performance of Illuminare, the luminous choral-orchestral work by acclaimed contemporary composer Elaine Hagenberg, on Sunday, April 26, 2026 at 3:00 PM. The concert will be performed by a professional orchestra and the Presbyterian Church of Barrington Sanctuary Choir, conducted by Dr. Kirsten Hedegaard.

The program will also include additional choral and instrumental works by contemporary American composers.

Hagenberg’s Illuminare is celebrated for its radiant harmonies, cinematic sweep, and heartfelt text setting—music that moves from intimate prayer to full, triumphant brilliance.

With orchestra and choir together in the sanctuary, the afternoon promises a
powerful, immersive experience for audiences of all ages.
The concert is free and open to public, with a reception following the performance.
