Frank Martin: Mass for Double Choir
For Frank Martin (1890–1974), making art and praying were private activities of faith, not a public act or a musical performance. Thus, Mass for Double Choir sat in a drawer for over 40 years until Martin finally allowed it to be performed in 1963. Mass for Double Choir is now recognized as one of the great masterpieces of twentieth-century choral music.
Emily Isaacson and Logan Gillis: Unforeseen Grace
In this self-directed concert, audiences are invited to create their own immersive sonic experience as they travel through an outdoor space amid 70 performers. Original music by Emily Isaacson and Logan Gillis; staging by Kevin Newbury.
