“Sure on This Shining Night” is a lyrical choral setting by Morten Lauridsen, based on a poem by American writer James Agee. Written for SATB choir with optional piano or instrumental accompaniment, the piece is celebrated for its tender melodies, rich harmonies, and luminous atmosphere. Lauridsen’s music beautifully reflects the poem’s themes of wonder, compassion, and the quiet beauty of a summer night, making it one of his most beloved and frequently performed works.
