About the Music
Lamb of God is a sacred musical work featuring the Temple Hill Choir, Soloists and Orchestra. It focuses on the final days of the life of Jesus Christ, His Atonement and Resurrection. It is written as a dramatic work and presented in concert format. It uses as its basis, and much of its text, the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and especially John, as found in the King James version of the Holy Bible. The work is written and composed by Rob Gardner.
Interfaith Community Effort
This year's performances welcome the added the sponsorship of the Catholic Charities of Santa Clara, benefitting Refugee Resettlement.
In addition, the American Red Cross, together with the Interfaith Community of Northern California, celebrates the gift of life. The Lamb of God performances also launch the Interfaith Community blood drive, during the month of July,
This ambitious effort begins at Easter time – the time when many celebrate the resurrection and gift of everlasting life. Spectacular Easter concerts mark the official opening of this community effort.
CDs of a recording with the London Philharmonic Orchestra will be available for purchase at the event. Subject to quantities on hand.
