Stay as we progress into more contemporary art songs, including a new work titled, Nocturne for the Breathless, written by living composer Logan Essex (Hahn) - a piece written in response to Covid-19 – featuring artfully crafted word painting with exquisite poetry by Alexandra Smerenka.
As we move into the final pieces of the concert we will feature several works from musical theater! You won’t want to miss The Ballad of Jane Doe, from the show Ride the Cyclone. Listen as Jane soars high into the ethers, lamenting why no one remembers who she is.
