One of IONA’S signature pieces, ‘The Mythology of Angels’ is an evening-length suite in six sections exploring divine guardianship, the tensions between good and evil, and the veil between body and soul. The rich heritage of angelic lore worldwide is depicted in brilliant color, culminating in a dazzling portrait of the extraterrestrial as metaphor for the 21st-century angel. Brilliant and heart warming, ‘The Mythology of Angels’ has been presented annually in Hawaii and has toured to several west coast cities.
