The Making of Donne Songs Without Words A Choreographic Work for Viol Quartet and Baroque Harp by Eleonor Sandresky
Parthenia Viol Consort, Eleonor Sandresky, composer, Christa Patton, harp
Parthenia and guests discuss the conception, composition and performance of Sandresky’s 2014 work, John Donne Songs Without Words, commissioned by Parthenia with a grant from the New York State Council on the Arts. We will explore our love of Donne’s poetry, the guiding aesthetic for this work, and talk about learning to use body movements while playing our instruments, and show videos of the 2015 premier.
Watch with us on May 13, and join in the conversation!
This program will be archived through May 23.
Daniel Bernard Roumain.
