<i>With the Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak
officially declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO),
public health has become a top priority for all. Both in Trinidad and
Tobago and around the world, each one of us must play a part in taking
personal responsibility for securing the safety of those around us. We,
the Lydian Singers and Steel, like most musical and cultural
organizations all over the world have taken steps to ensure that what we
do now and in the future will be positive action against the spread of
the virus. Although for the time being Trinidad and Tobago has not
experienced any community spread of the virus, public gatherings in the
future remain uncertain and we want to ensure that we are taking all
precautionary measures to avoid any risks. As such, all Lydian
rehearsals have been suspended until further notice and our publicly
scheduled performances will all be deferred until further announcements
are made. We pray and wait in hope that the tides will turn in favour of
us meeting again to once more sing and share our music, with each other
and with you, our audience. Until then, we invite you to stay in touch
with us on our Social Media channels for further updates and join us as
we share the gift of music and reflect on 40 years of musical
excellence.</i></div>

A special weekend of performances was held for the start of the Lydians 40th anniversary celebrations in December, which included a Gala performance on Friday 13th December 2019 at Queen's Hall. The evening featured a sing-along of Christmas carols with the choir in the Queen's Hall lobby and a ceremonial ornament hanging for all attendees on the Caribbean Christmas tree designed by Kirk Langton Designs. Our 3 Musical Muses of the Past, Present and Future paid us a visit, designed and produced by Ronald Guy-James of Bisi Couture and portrayed by Afesha "La Madame", Dolores "La Reine" and Akida "La Belle Nouvelle", Principal dancers of the Bon Bassa Production Best Village Group.<br />
<br />
The costumes featured a special, heart-warming feature, as they were all made using musical scores - sheet music that were sung from, used by and performed by the Lydians!<br />
<br />
<h3>
About the concert</h3>
<i>"For most Lydians and patrons acquainted with that golden period of music under the baton of our third musical director Dr. Pat Bishop, the words 'Deo Gratias' will be familiar. Ms. Bishop, as she was more commonly called by us Lydians, would pen a musical director's note and most times, sign her name beneath these words. In Latin, the words mean, "Thanks Be To God" - an exuberant exclamation of gratitude to the Creator for all life's blessings, chiefly among these, the birth of Christ in Bethlehem and the gift of music, which heralded his arrival...." </i> <a href="https://issuu.com/thelydianstt/docs/lydians_2019_programme_1_" target="_blank">read more here</a> from the official programme booklet<br />

On Sunday 13th October 2019 the Lydians also celebrated along with the music and Steelpan community the life and cultural contribution of Mark Loquan. We were honoured to play a part through our former Musical Director, Dr. Pat Bishop (dec.). We wished Mr. Loquan hearty congratulations and Happy Birthday in song in celebration of his 20 year milestone in beautiful music. The Lydians joined the National Steel Symphony Orchestra of Trinidad and Tobago, the National Philharmonic Orchestra of Trinidad and Tobago and Destra Garcia for this performance!<br /><br />One of the biggest hits from Mark Loquan came in the form of his great panorama collaboration with Destra Garcia, 'Colours Again'. Arranged in 2008 by John Jacob - one of the longest and most treasured musical collaborators of the Lydians, the song was debuted at the T&T Musical Festival for the Calypso Chorale Class, which was easily won in that year. It was performed again at the 2008 COTT Awards where the choir was given the opportunity to back the original singer. We revisit this classic piece again in celebration of Mr. Loquan's 20th anniversary in music, once again with the powerhouse vocalist Destra Garcia. <br /><br />Thank you to Mr. Mark Loquan and Mark Loquan Music for inviting the Lydians to celebrate this momentous occasion in Trinbago music!<br />

<span style="color: #e06666;">The Journey Continues - The Lydians at the SoundForge</span></h2>
At the end of the year we prepared yet again to move to another rehearsal location at the SoundForge in Mucurapo. We extended special thanks to the management and staff of the Trinidad and Tobago Christian Science Church on Richmond St. Port of Spain for their generous hospitality in hosting our choir and steel ensemble at their beautiful venue for the few months they gave us their support and hospitality!<br /><br />We spent our Christmas preparation period at the SoundForge before relocating a third time to the COSTATT Student Center on Dundonald Street, Port of Spain.<br />

<i>An evening of poetry and choral music </i><br />
<br />
In 2019, the Lydian Singers mark their 40th anniversary of excellence in music as one of the foremost musical organisations in Trinidad and Tobago. Along with the Lydian Steel Ensemble, which celebrates 23 years of steelpan accompaniment and performing distinction, the group will host a diverse line-up of both musical and non-musical events over the year, organized to celebrate this incredible milestone.<br />

The Abbey of Our Lady of Exile at Mount St. Benedict will once more be the backdrop of the Lydians annual concert series, ‘Lydians on the Mount’, this edition entitled, ‘O Rejoice!’<br /><br />Through poetry and music, the choir and steel ensemble under the musical direction of Lorraine Granderson will take audiences on a Pilgrim's journey through the life of Christ, to the foot of the cross and to the empty tomb, to the resounding celebration of his triumphant resurrection.<br /><br />All around the world, the Easter season forms a large part of the bedrock of the Christian faith. On Sunday 28th April 2019 at 5:00 p.m., the Lydians will come together on the Mount singing multiple genres of music from composers such as Hogan, Bizet, Mascagi, DuBois and Handel to rejoice and celebrate the risen savior.<br /><br />“The music programme for this concert highlights our mission as representatives of that hope of redemption,” confirmed Assistant Musical Director Carl-Anthony Hines who coordinated the musical selections of the concert. “We are bid, ‘O, rejoice’ that the Lord is arisen, he has conquered death and the grave!"<br /><br />The Lydians and the monks at the Abbey have a long history of collaboration in their mutual mission of music ministry. The Lydians often include the location at the Mount as part of its annual pre-Christmas concert performances as well.<br /><br />With this fundraising effort, the Lydians continue to offer community music ministry in support of the Abbey in its efforts to restore the holy site and continue its mission. <br /><br />The concert will feature both quietly prayerful and fanfare choral works and will include special selections from soloists, small ensembles and the Lydian Steel.<br /><br /><br />

The Lydians wish condolences to the family, friends and colleagues of
former Bishop Anstey High School Principal, <b>Stephanie Shurland</b>, and to
all Hilarians around the world in this time of mourning. Not only
has the school been the home of the Lydians for its 40-year existence,
but Ms. Shurland's support and endorsement of our choir from the very
beginning is one for which we will eternally be grateful.<br />

<i><b>Story below courtesy Lydian, Gillian Bishop:</b></i><br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<div class="text_exposed_show">
<i>"The Lydians’ “Godmother” has died. When Miss Shurland became
Headmistress of Bishop Anstey High School, I was already at University
in Jamaica. But I got to know her through my sister Pat and our parents.
We discovered our mutual passion for curried shrimps and the bond we
formed when she treated me one memorable day to a curried shrimp roti
lunch at Mangals restaurant was unshakable. Whenever we would meet she
would tell stories. A few years ago we met at a funeral and she shared
with me the following story: When Mrs Spence was Deputy Headmistress of
Bishops, she mentioned to Miss Shurland that she had formed a mixed
voice choir; 10 men and 10 women, the latter taken largely from Bishops
High School alumnae. She confessed to Miss Shurland that she hadn’t
given the choir a name as yet . Miss Shurland recalled a poem which she
had read and marked as a student at Naparima Girls School, L’Allegro by
Milton. It went thus “ lap me in soft Lydian airs”. And so she declared,
“Name it The Lydians!”. 40 years from our naming, we must now mourn the
loss of this once great educator, mentor, friend, our “ Godmother”,
Stephanie Shurland. Rest In Peace, lovely lady."</i></div>

Granderson, this Christmas, the Lydians explore the theme of ‘The Gift’.
At the birth of Jesus in Bethlehem, three gifts were given heralding
him as the gift of salvation to all – Gold, Frankincense and Myrrh.
Along with these, the Lydians offer music, the most precious gift of
all, the ability to perform it, a grace, an offering of goodwill and an
action of love.<br />

Goodwill and love have been chief cornerstones of the past few months
in Trinidad and Tobago. As citizens, we rallied around those in need of
aid, donated food, water, clothing and began to clean up, rebuild and
restore lives. This Christmas, the Lydians wish to restore the spirits
of the people as well. The concert will take place from Thursday 13th to
Saturday 15th December at 7:30 p.m. and on Sunday 16th December at 6:00
p.m. at the Queen’s Hall.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The concert will take patrons on a
musical journey through the gifts of the Three Kings, divided into three
segments: Myrrh (Renewal/death of the past), Frankincense
(Reverence/Advent Hope, the birth and Nativity), and Gold
(Rejoicing/Glorious now behold King). Just as the contemporary
observance of the season celebrates the ritual of gift exchange with
friends and loved ones, The Lydians seek to offer an exciting array of
music, threaded through the gifts to attending audiences.</div>

As a special feature of this year’s
concert, the Lydians have been offering ‘The Gift of Music’ caravan to
Queen’s Hall. Corporate Trinidad and Tobago has been approached and
invited to give the gift of music to affected communities, schools and
youth organizations through the purchase of tickets to be distributed to
those in need of hope – beyond the physical. The Lydians believe that
music, as a gift, will help as part of the healing process, to nurture
both the spiritual and emotional needs of our fellow citizens in these
trying times.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The concert production will feature the
full choir, the Lydian Steel, our renowned accompanists as well as our
drummers. Joining the Lydians once more, with be Wendell Manwarren as
Creative Director with original pieces by Jazz/gospel pianist Mark
Brewster and Folk arranger John Jacob from Tobago. Composer, Pannist
Astra will launch a fourth piece from the major work composed for the
choir entitled, ‘Missa Lydia’ – the Lydian Mass. The visuals of the show
will be enhanced by set design by Edwin Erminy, sound by Victor Donawa
and lighting design by Celia Wells.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
The spirit of community and volunteerism is an inherent
Lydian character trait. The group's activities have included community outreach
assisting many churches of various denominations and other groups across the
country. It has also included other charitable institutions in the support of
their respective goals. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The Lydians typically perform – unpaid for many community
organizations and in many communities-in-need across the country. Past projects
have included free performances at Tamarind Square, Brain Lara Promenade and at
countless fundraising concerts for many churches and for special interest
groups across the nation. </div>
<br />Within recent years, the choir has had to reduce the number of performances per year because the success of Lydians community-driven performances depends on the mobility of the choir to take its performances to those in need. Most venues where the Lydians would like to perform do not have the sound system support needed for a choral group, steel ensemble and instrumental orchestra of this size. Nevertheless, the mission remains. Part of what the Lydians would like to continue offering to the community, is to offer themselves as a one-stop-shop performing group.<br /><br /><div class="MsoNormal">

Woodbrook Place in Port of Spain, has a successful history of helping others

The funds raised from this final effort will be combined
with financing already secured from two years of activity the Lydians have
undertaken to source a state-of-the-art sound system outfitted with all the
necessary equipment to support a choir and steel orchestra for musical outreach
activities. The choir hopes to accomplish this during the coming year in the
lead up to its 40th anniversary celebrations, which are scheduled to begin in
2019.</div>

Ticket vouchers of a $50 will be available in support of the
purchase of a new public performance sound system for the Lydians, tickets
available from all choir members or by calling 794-6391. For more information,

<span style="color: #e69138;"><b>'ROOTS - A celebration!'</b></span><br /><i>Friday 20th July 2018 | 7:30 p.m.</i><br /><br />Earlier this year, Lydians offered choral music event for Emancipation
2018, combining Singers, Steel Ensemble, Drummers, Musicians and Dancers
in a full-length concert, performing Folk, Calypso and Afro-Caribbean
Traditional music. This
Lydians Presentation of ROOTS - A Celebration! was dedicated to past
Musical Director and Caribbean Icon Patricia Allison Bishop TC, H.B.M.,
BA Hons. (Fine Art), MA (History, Hon. D. Litt.(deceased). A visionary
whose influence and work has shaped national consciousness and the
artistic landscape of the region. Reminiscent of her artistic legacy, we
married the music to a sense of history, infusing it with the vitality
of dance and the drum! We were honoured in this offering to present
works that spanned three continents, as well as the Caribbean, shaped by
the minds and hands of her people.</div>

Keeping ever in our minds the mantra: “Until ALL have crossed none have crossed, and some we have to carry.” <i>(ROOTS programme notes, Carl-Anthony Hines, Assistant Musical Director)</i>The Lydianshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15968792042254158579noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3636821582585866814.post-45230177335813635232018-11-07T18:13:00.000-04:002018-11-07T18:13:03.283-04:00Lydians perform for Pat Bishop's final art exhibition - 'She Sells Sea Shells on the Sea Shore'<br />
On May 9th, The Lydians performed in honour of former Lydians Musical Director Dr. Pat Bishop (deceased), who was instrumental in guiding the choir to this historic collaboration. She was celebrated at the opening of her final exhibition, <span style="color: #e06666;"><b><i>'She Sells Sea Shells on the Shore'</i></b></span> at the newly refurbished Stollmeyer's Castle. The full catalogue of paintings were incomplete before her passing, but have been carefully preserved and now showcased under the P.A.L.M. Foundation - "Pat's Art, Literature and Music Foundation."<br />

The piece, 'La Virgen de la Caridad del Cobre', is a popular Marian title of the Blessed Virgin Mary known in many Catholic countries. In Cuba, "The Virgin" is a renowned and integral part of the island's culture and plays an important role in the Catholic heritage of Cubans exiled inside and outside of North America. The church, La Ermita de la Caridad del Cobre, is a memorial that was constructed in honor of her and is a monument to the religious and political history of the island.<br />
<br />
In 2010, the Lydian Singers, Steel and Drummers in collaboration with featured guest pianist and composer Maestro Jose Maria Vitier performed his major work, the MISSA CUBANA for the first time ever in Trinidad and Tobago. This was the first musical and artistic collaboration of its kind between the two Caribbean nations and was performed at the Queen's Hall Auditorium, St. Ann's along with long-time Lydians collaborators the Desperadoes Steel Orchestra.<br />
<br />
Vitier’s “Plegaria a La Virgen” (lyrics by Silvia Rodriguez de Vitier) was sung by Dirk Govia, which ended the evening’s performance.

<br />
Founded in 1912, Mount St. Benedict is the home of the Benedictine monks who live and work in Trinidad and Tobago and is the oldest monastery in the region. They follow a way of life that traces its roots to St. Benedict of Norcia who was born in Italy in the year 480. Educated in Rome, Benedict of Norcia was exposed to the onslaught of hedonism that was rampant at the time, as people became disoriented from their principal purpose in life. Benedict sought out the solitude of a cave at Subiaco, some thirty miles east of Rome, to recapture what he perceived to be the primary purpose of life: the search for God.[1]<br />
<br />
This Easter, the Lydians do it all for the glory of God. Lydians on the Mount – Glorious! will be inspired by two verses; 1 Corinthians 10:31 - "Whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God" and 2 Corinthians 4:6 - "For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of God’s glory displayed in the face of Christ." <br />
<br />
The concert will feature both quietly prayerful and fanfare choral works and will include a special selection of 2018 T&T Music Festival performances including championship winners Alliyah Boland, Janine Charles-Farray, Kory Mendez, the Lydian Ladies and Lydian Men's choirs. Genres to be offered will include Operatic arias, Gospel and powerful Negro Spirituals including "I Know I've Been Changed" passionately performed by Tenor soloist David Williams backed by the full choir, all under the musical direction of Lorraine Granderson. <br />

<b>About The Lydians</b><br />
<br />
One of the premier musical groups in Trinidad and Tobago, The Lydians consist of singers, steelpan players, African and Tassa drummers and treasured creative collaborators. The group has won several championship trophies at the T&T Music Festival and is a recipient of the Hummingbird Medal – Gold for loyal and devoted service in the sphere of singing. Under the direction of past musical directors including Joyce Spence, Alma Pierre and Pat Bishop, the choir has made history and established a global brand for Trinidad and Tobago as one of the few musical organizations in the English-speaking Caribbean to attempt interpretations of major opera, oratorio and requiem works over the years.<br />
<br />
In 2017, the baton of Musical Director was passed to Ms. Lorraine Granderson who has over 30 years' experience conducting, teaching and working with choirs, steelbands and in independent musical productions in Trinidad and Tobago. The Lydians now enter a new musical era in which the group intends to grow into an even more uplifting future, with the God-given gift of music and in service to the people of Trinidad and Tobago and, by extension, the world. <br />

The passing of a Lydian </h2>
<br />
This week, Lydians around the world mourn the loss of Jenny Archer, Contralto who performed with the choir as a chorister and soloist since 1987. She will be so dearly missed.<br /><br />Jenny was to the Contraltos of the Lydians what Glenis and Joanne are to the Sopranos. A redoubtable and much beloved "Miss" to successive generations of children at the Morvant Anglican School, Jenny brought the same dedication to her children that she brought to Lydian Music. <br /><br />In the opera 'Koanga' by Delius, Jenny played the role of Clotilda, wife of Don Jose Martinez and also shone in other opera roles, at Music Festival and as a Principal Contralto soloist with the Lydians. As per choir Christmas tradition, she soothed countless Lydian audiences with her rendition of 'Red and Green Christmas' a piece written exclusively for the Lydian Singers by Cattouse of Belize. May her soul and the souls of the faithful departed through the mercy of God rest in peace. <br /><br /><b>Click here to view:</b> <a href="https://youtu.be/Z7L6BBtq2CU">https://youtu.be/Z7L6BBtq2CU</a><br /><b>In Memoriam Video, <i>Jenny Archer - A Lydian</i></b><br />

<h2>
The passing of a President</h2>
The Lydians also offer our deepest condolences on the passing of former President of the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago Professor George Maxwell Richards. We extend heartfelt sympathies to his wife, Dr. Jean Ramjohn-Richards and we honor his legacy and mourn his loss alongside his family and the people of Trinidad and Tobago. We hope to bring solace in this time of grief as we lift our voices to offer our song at the official state funeral, which will take place on Wednesday, January 17, at the National Academy for the Performing Arts (NAPA) at 10 am. May God give him eternal rest.<br />

This
Christmas, the Lydians, comprising singers, steel ensemble, drummers, dancers
and more, make a call to the nation to hold out a light this Christmas! Their
annual concert entitled, "Hold Out Your Light" will encompass a
full-length stage production - a celebration of light and music taking place
from Thursday 14<sup>th</sup> to Sunday 17<sup>th </sup>December 2017 at
Queen’s Hall Auditorium, St. Ann’s. (All shows will begin at 7:30 p.m. except
Sunday which will begin at 6:00 p.m.)</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
Featured in
the concert will be a fusion between a full 100-plus person cast and the
creative innovation of North Eleven light projection and noted lighting
designer Celia Wells. For the music, the power and exhilaration of the Negro
Spiritual will flow into Christmas to evoke potent emotions reflected through
three beacons of light: <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">The Church, The Home</i>
and <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">The Community</i>.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: left;">
One of the
most powerful musical genres which has historically represented a triumph of
hope and light is the Negro Spiritual. The Lydians have a long and successful
legacy of performing Spirituals. The choir's choral, sound and tone of lush
vocal harmonies and powerful, full-bodied sound lends itself perfectly to the
ecstasy and anguish demanded by these songs. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
The call to
'Hold Out Your Light' is one inspired by light prevailing over darkness
expressed through the iconic example of the abolitionist and humanitarian
Harriet Tubman, who led hundreds of the enslaved to freedom by the light of her
lamp through the underground railroad. She was a powerful example of holding
out a light against injustice, cruelty and inhumanity. At Christmas and all
through the year, the light of perseverance, selfless service and goodwill
remains important and a poignant message for all. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
To bring the
production together, the Lydians called upon on treasured relationships built
over the years with some of Trinidad and Tobago's best creative collaborators.
Each represents a spark of brilliance and creativity that enhanced the
presentation of this Christmas performance.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
The all-star
production team includes Creative Director, Wendell Manwarren with words by
Muhammad Muwakil. Dave Cooper of Hybrid Theory Productions debuts with the
Lydians on Set Design and Celia Wells returns for lighting design with the
‘wow’ factor – North Eleven projection. Claudette Edwards with Ian Smith will
have the Lydians in fine costumes and sound design will be done by Kino
Alvarez, Alan Changoor and Alroy Harry.</div>

The Lydian
Singers organization is one of the premier musical groups in Trinidad and
Tobago comprising singers, steelpan players, African and Tassa drummers and
treasured creative collaborators. The choir has made history and established a
global brand for Trinidad and Tobago as one of the few musical organizations in
the English-speaking Caribbean to attempt interpretations of major opera,
oratorio and requiem works over the years. The choir has also shown prowess at
the T&T Music Festival winning over thirty (30) championship trophies over
the years and has also achieved one of the nation’s most prestigious awards –
The Hummingbird Medal – Gold in 1991 for loyal and devoted service in the
sphere of singing. Pat Bishop led the group in many pioneering musical
projects until her sudden death in August 2011. In taking over governance of
The Lydians in 2016, the organization's newly-elected Board of Directors and
Management Team continue to guide the group into an even more uplifting future,

Among those years of service in music, the choir has had a long-standing relationship with the <a href="http://www.mountstbenedictabbey.org/" target="_blank">Abbey of Our Lady of Exile at Mount St. Benedict</a>.<br /><br />While the Lydians have had many collaborative concerts with the Abbey over the years, in 2016, a concert series specifically catered to the Abbey was created, entitled, ‘Lydians on The Mount.’ This Advent, on November 26th 2017 at 6:00 p.m., The Lydians will be hosting its 3rd concert of the ‘Lydians on the Mount’ series entitled, “In Holy Songs of Joy!”<br />

In 1991, the Lydians were invited by long-standing Lydian and Bass vocalist, Selwyn Ragoonanan to perform on the Mount. By his account, the first time that former musical director Dr. Pat Bishop (deceased) went to the Mount, she took an immediate liking to the church and fell in love with the acoustic and with its holy serenity, perfect for the lush choral sound of the Lydians. <br /><br />During this period, we keep our lamps trimmed and burning and the light in our hearts alive with faith. The choir and steel ensemble will celebrate with readings, hymns and songs with joyful anticipation.<br />
On November 26th over 65 singers, steelpan players, drummers and musical accompanists will assemble under the musical direction of Lorraine Granderson and within the holy walls of the Abbey of Our Lady of Exile for <i><b>“Lydians on The Mount – In Holy Songs of Joy”</b></i>. <br /><br />Tickets for Lydians on the Mount – In Holy Songs of Joy are TT$100 and are available from the information booth at Mount St. Benedict, all members of the Lydians and from the Lydians ticket hotlines: 268-9556 and 338-6024.<br /><br />As the grand finale of the concert season, the Lydians will also present <i><b>"Hold Out Your Light", a Christmas celebration of light and music</b></i>! The theme: “Hold Out Your Light” will explore three beacons of light most treasured at Christmas time and will showcase the power of the Lydian choral sound through the Negro Spiritual.<br /><br />The call to 'Hold Out Your Light' is one inspired by light prevailing over darkness expressed through the iconic example of the abolitionist and humanitarian Harriet Tubman, who led hundreds of the enslaved to freedom by the light of her lamp through the underground railroad. These Negro Spiritual songs performed by the Lydians, will speak directly to that hope Tubman gave to many, and, fused with the season of Christmas, the Lydians will celebrate that light to freedom, along with the light of the world – the saviour born in Bethlehem, who gives joy, hope and peace to all.<br /><br />“Hold Out Your Light” will also feature all the Lydians’ Christmas favourites, including Gospel, Jazz, Parang and Calypso, set to spectacular lighting effects by North Eleven, with Lighting Design by Celia Wells and Set Design by Hybrid Theory Productions’ Dave Cooper. Sound Design will be done by Kino Alvarez and his team with Costume Design by Ian Smith and Claudette Edwards, Choreography by Allison Seepaul and Adele Bynoe, Creative Direction by Wendell Manwarren and Words by Muhammad Muwakil<br />
