Philadelphia Voices: O My Earth
The gift of life, the sorrow of death, the eternal earth beneath us: these mysteries have inspired American poets and composers to create some of their greatest works. Six Philadelphia composers explore the poetry of Walt Whitman, Kenneth Rexroth, Susan Albertine, Shakespeare and others, and create stirring music that moves from the pain of loss to the healing power of love.
The musicians of the Network Ensemble are joined for the first time by FELYX_M, a chamber group selected from the Mendelssohn Club’s symphonic chorus specifically for this evening’s chamber repertoire.
Join us for an evening of beautiful and evocative music:
