coming home to song
with Ted Babcock, percussion
music of Ayanna Woods, Michael Gilbertson, Ēriks Ešenvalds, and James Primosch
on the 20th anniversary of 9/11
“Earth teach me quiet – as the grasses are still with light.” So begins Ēriks’ “Earth teach me quiet”: a prayer, a meditation, an invitation. All nouns we associate with Returning, as we begin to emerge with this long-awaited family gathering, following a twenty-month exile from our home. A short concert, followed by a long party, of works we love, sung with artists we love, for people we love, marking a time, a passing, of isolation, grief, confusion, hope, and returning.
Pre-concert talk with Donald @ 6pm in the Burleigh Cruikshank Memorial Chapel
Post-concert homecoming gathering in Widener Hall
Tickets: General Admission $35, Senior $25, Student $20
