Other Info | Explore the bounds of the human voice with two contemporary composers from wildly different traditions. The foremost vocal ensemble for contemporary music, Neue Vocalsolisten, will make a rare stateside appearance alongside New York’s Talea Ensemble. This exciting collaboration between two groups that champion new music will mark the US premiere of works by composers Ramon Lazkano and Fabien Lévy. A theatrical presentation of Lévy’s Après tout tells a moving story of forgiveness in the aftermath of WWII. Ramon Lazkano makes it impossible to distinguish between voice and instrument in a beautiful soundscape made from a French text by Edmond Jadès. Program: Ramon Lazkano: Ceux à Qui (2014) *US Premiere for six voices and ensemble Fabien Lévy: Après tout (2012) *US Premiere for six voices and ensemble |
