Elrik Mer­lin will play the tracks back to back with­out inter­rup­tion, and pro­vide a list of songs at the set’s con­clu­sion.

About First Sun­days: At VCRa­dio, we believe Sun­day after­noons are the per­fect time to treat your­self to some­thing spe­cial, and we invite you to join us on the First Sun­day (usu­al­ly) after­noon of each month as we present a dif­fer­ent musi­cal treat: around an hour of music on a theme. It could be any­thing — new age music, orches­tral clas­sics, sound­tracks, or music cel­e­brat­ing a par­tic­u­lar cul­ture.

About Sanc­tu­ary in Sec­ond Life: Found­ed in 2008, Sanc­tu­ary, long cel­e­brat­ed for its award-win­ning his­tor­i­cal role­play, has evolved into a vibrant cul­tur­al space for art, pho­tog­ra­phy, dance, music, and theater—welcoming glob­al gath­er­ings and cre­ativ­i­ty with­out bor­ders.
