Program, Bios, Texts & Translations

The songs represent separation, unexpected farewell, grief and longing between loved ones, as well as the isolation that comes with all of it. At the same time Much love and light emerge from loss. Reading these poems and hearing this music brings me solace. Delving into these songs has been healing and I hope it will be for our community too. The music is simply exquisite, otherworldly and remains absolutely gorgeous. In times that are far from ideal, and with what can seem like a world without much peace, it is hopeful to find, look for and see beauty wherever it might come from. These pieces do just that.

This recital was made possible by a 2022 Music in Action grant from the Wagner Society of the Upper Midwest
