The Street Theatre | Canberra, CT
Georges Aperghis' Wild Romance isn't nearly as tender as the title suggests, but it is undeniably passionate. Extreme tensions between the vocalist and chamber ensemble evoke the reconstruction of a painful distant memory. Kaija Saariaho's Light and Matter captures the continuous transformation of light on glinting leaves in New York's Morningside Park. Bree van Reyk weaves her pensive soundworld around the unique ensemble lineup in the first of two world premieres, the second of which comes from Melbourne-based composer May Lyon. Composed as Ensemble Offspring's final Noisy Women Commission, Lyon's Do Na Chaill delves into the Scottish folklore of disembodied voices, perfectly navigating the intangible and mystical themes of the program.
