Join us for an evening of ‘music & conversation’ with our friends
THE BRILLIANCE
as we talk ‘beauty, generosity, justice & all things Jesus’
Join us at 7pm on Wednesday February 8, 2017, at Paddington Anglican Church in Sydney (245 Glenmore Rd, Paddington).
Imagine a traditional church building lit by candlelight, filled with people who are passionate about Jesus and justice, listening to the thoughts and music of some of the most prophetic Christian musical artists of our day… you get the vibe? Suffice to say that this will be a night that is good for the soul.
Our venue has a limited capacity, so please don’t delay in gathering your friends and securing your tickets. We’d hate for any of our likeminded friends to miss out on being there!

THE BRILLIANCE
In a world where hate is the language of the day, racial tension runs high, violence is a means to an end and shootings are a common occurrence, it’s easy to give in to despair. Yet, in the midst of New York City, one of the country’s most diverse and socially involved cities, lies a musical collective creating art that’s counter cultural. With their second full-length project in partnership with Integrity Music, David Gungor and John Arndt—otherwise known as The Brilliance—are suggesting that perhaps All Is Not Lost.The two men have shared a brotherly bond since childhood when their fathers played in a wedding band together in the ’70s. Throughout college, they made music together in a variety of bands. When David began leading worship at Trinity Grace Church’s Tribeca Parish in New York City, he wanted to write original music for his congregation that followed the liturgical calendar, so he sent some ideas to Arndt, and a unique musical journey began as the two, along with an ensemble of musician friends, began recording under the moniker of The Brilliance. Inspired by neoclassical music, their sound is built on piano and string arrangements and rarely follows traditional pop form.
