Ola Gjeilo’s Northern Lights flawlessly captures the ethereal, "terrible beauty" of the aurora borealis. Rather than a literal description, the composer uses Latin texts from the Song of Solomon to evoke a breathtaking, celestial dance of electric. It is a mesmerizing a cappella masterpiece that sounds exactly like the stars are singing.

Ēriks Ešenvalds utilizes a shimmering, ethereal choral arrangement in The New Moon that evokes the vastness of the night sky and the delicate silver arc of a crescent moon. To mirror this cosmic atmosphere and the fragile quality of starlight, the piece famously incorporates tuned water glasses played by the singers to create a haunting, ringing drone. This unique texture breathes life into Sara Teasdale's poem, blending serene melodic lines with sudden, rich harmonic swells that capture the speaker's breathless awe of nature.
