VOCES8 & Voices of Singapore: Ashes to Dust by Darius Lim

VOCES8 and the Voices of Singapore combine under the direction of Dr. Darius Lim for his setting of 'Ashes to Dust', performed in CHIJMES Hall in Singapore during VOCES8's visit in June 2024. 'Ashes to Dust' was commissioned by East Spring Chorale and premiered at the Victoria Concert Hall in Singapore on 19th April 2015. The song was written during the year of the passing of Lee Kuan Yew, the first prime-minister of Singapore, and was written in commemoration of him. The work explores the grief and hope of life and death, with the sacred latin text “Kyrie Eleison” and “Dona Nobis Pacem”. ​​​​​​​​ ---- VOCES8 is the no. 1 streamed classical vocal ensemble in the world.
