Original Music for Luminescence

(Updated January 2026 -- RK)

As with all holidays, one way to bring people together is through song.  As a holiday centered on light, Luminescence has great potential for creating new music. Scott Roewe, musical director at the UUSCV congregation, has created a number of songs to celebrate the holiday.  Permission is granted for using these songs for the celebration of Luminescence and for recording and posting of your service via audio or video.
