Michael McNeill presents an afternoon of music evoking the dream world and its resonances in waking life. Anchoring the program is Dorothy Rudd Moore's "Dream and Variations" (1974), a work of rugged, mid-20th-century American modernism that explores "a land of dreams which range from euphoric bliss to nightmarish disturbance". McNeill will also play several of his own works highlighting the ethereal resonances of the piano. Bookending these will be Alexander Scriabin's Eight Etudes, op. 42 (1903), works of sumptuous late Romanticism that hint at the dramatic developments of the coming decade.
