Like a mirrored reflection of last year's Month of Moderns, which focused on The Other, this year we turn inward to a series of life journeys. In
Month of Moderns 1: a house we visit a number of our 'selves' - the caring self and the needing self; the spiritual self and the political self. This special evening, focusing primarily on lesser-known works of David Lang along with a world premiere by Ellis Ludwig-Leone, is a study in what love - be it for another, a god, or for humanity - drives us to do and to be.
Pre-concert talk at 7pm in the Chapel with Donald and Ellis.
Join us on the lawn after the concert for an informal reception -
