Butterflies and Ghosts
Sunday, June 7 at 3 pm
139 St. John’s Place, Park Slope
What’s the hook?
Wrapping up our season is bittersweet, and so is this program. We begin with Clarice Assad’s Chronicles of Ghosts, a set of songs for quartet and voice exploring the worlds of Grace O’Malley and Anne Hutchinson, two significant female figures of the 16th and 17th centuries, then we follow that with So ist mein Herz, a set of songs to the text of Hermann Hesse by friend of the series, Tim Mukherjee. We then wrap up our season with the most tragic of Mendelssohn’s works, his Quartet in f minor, written in the tormented aftermath of his beloved sister Fannie’s death.
