Something Glows, Something Grows (Pittsburgh)

  • Allegheny Unitarian Church 416 W North Ave Pittsburgh, PA 15212 (map)

An evocative retelling of the first Christmas, SOMETHING GLOWS, SOMETHING GROWS offers an age-old narrative infused with an unmistakable immediacy and relevance for the time in which we are living. 

Half-spoken and half-sung, Lee Saville-Iksic’s newest concert-length work weaves captivating storytelling, compelling commentary, and raw autobiographical snapshots together with musical arrangements ranging in style from blues and folk to neo-classical and ambient. 

Rich with centuries-old carols and original songs – and asking us to plumb our dreams for what acts of creation we are called to undergo during seasons of darkness – SOMETHING GLOWS, SOMETHING GROWS has a bit of something for everyone; activist, scholar, mystic, and skeptic alike.
