Description

A musical reflection on what freedom means today

The centerpiece of this concert is Caroline Shaw’s To The Hands, a work that takes the text of Emma Lazarus’ poem The New Colossus and intermingles it with the chorale Ad Manus from Buxtehude’s Membra Jesu Nostri in poignant ways. Filling out the program are works by six other acclaimed contemporary composers, including Jake Runestad’s The Peace of Wild Things, David Lang’s If I Am Silent, and Karen Siegel’s To Be Free, an adaptation of the Shaker/Copland tune Simple Gifts.

Online stream cost: $20

Livestream will be available from the start of the concert time until June14th at 11pm Eastern.

Ticket purchases will receive the access link and password via email upon purchase completion.
