Orpheus and Euridice
Advertisement
Music and text by Ricky Ian Gordon
Sung in English with projected lyrics.
LOVE, LOSS, AND LETTING GO.
Orpheus, a grieving musician, loses his beloved Euridice too soon—and is granted one impossible chance to bring her back from the underworld. Guided by music and memory, he descends into a realm of shadows with only one rule: don’t look back. Ricky Ian Gordon’s ORPHEUS AND EURIDICE retells the ancient myth with lyrical intimacy and emotional clarity, blending classical voice with contemporary style. It’s a haunting meditation on love, loss, and letting go.
This performance takes place in the intimate Wilks Studio at Music Hall.
