ToV revisits Carnegie Hall
This Wednesday, we are invited back to New York's Carnegie Hall to present a world premiere of the Pulitzer Prize-awarded composer David Lang's cycle for choir, the writings. TOV will be performing the new work with the Yale Voxtet - eight talented students from Yale University who, on the days leading up to the concert, have been studying the piece on a workshop, led by TOV and Paul Hillier.
The first half of the concert includes the US premiere of Danish director Phie Ambo's Songs from the Soil - a visual poem that poetically communicates the essence of biodynamics to our ears and senses. Ambo's images have no words or dialogue; instead they are accomapnied by well-known works by Arvo Pärt, performed live by Theatre of Voices and Christopher Bowers-Broadbent.
