SOUNDS OF THE TIMES:
FROM THE CANYONS TO THE STARS
Saturday, April 1 at 7:30 PM
New World Center
Members of Ensemble intercontemporain—the premier ensemble for contemporary music—and its Music Director Matthias Pintscher join Fellows for this one-night-only performance.
Reflect, recharge and connect with the beauty of the natural world with Olivier Messiaen’s colorful 12-movement epic From the canyons to the stars… Inspired by visits to Utah’s Bryce Canyon and Zion National Park, nature enthusiast Messiaen captured the scenic wonders in an expansive work for four soloists and orchestra. This performance will feature a multimedia video commission by artist Hicham Berrada projected across the New World Center’s architectural sails.
