commissioned by Chamber Music America
April 25th, 26th, and 27th, 2025 @ St. Malachy's The Actor's Chapel
exploring the fate of discarded icons through the lens of societal wastefulness
The narrative revolves around the characters Leander and Medusa, suspended amidst waves frozen in time, burdened with the detritus of human disregard. Their spectral forms emerge from the sea to deliver poignant arias, while an ensemble of musicians embodies the voice of Neptune and shapes the immersive sonic landscape.
The program includes complimentary chamber works also inspired by icons and mythology
