Sunset

Presented by A Far Cry at NEC's Jordan Hall

Featuring Krista River, mezzo-soprano
This is a program that begins at the end, and then keeps going. Sunset pulls us into a world of love and loss right away, with the exquisite timbres of Julius Eastman’s Joy Boy and Respighi’s “Il Tramonto” (The Sunset), sung by mezzo-soprano Krista River, that moves from bliss to heartbreak and death. From that burnished world, Lutosławski’s Musique Funèbre descends further into the darkness of grief and rage. Lusitano’s 16th-century meditation “Aspice Domine” opens the door to healing, and Vaughan Williams’ Tallis Fantasia waits for us on the other side of it all, quietly linking the human and the divine.

Musical Program:
Julius Eastman | Joy Boy
Ottorino Respighi | "Il Tramonto"
Witold Lutosławski | Musique Funèbre
Vicente Lusitano | “Aspice Domine,” arr. Andrus Madsen
Ralph Vaughan Williams | Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis
