Inspired by the third and final book from Dante's Divine Comedy,"Paradiso" depicts the spiritual journey of Dante and his beloved, Beatrice — as filtered through the imagination of Dutch composer Jacob TV and the media-saturated American cultural landscape. From the Apollo astronauts to boisterous televangelists (and the drug-infused musings of trumpeter Chet Baker), many characters inhabit this ultra-tonal, multimedia work meant to dispense with doom and damnation — and to embrace the beauty of our shared suffering.
Join host David Garland each Sunday at 8pm (through Easter Sunday) for WNYC's exclusive series Sacred Sundays, featuring sacred music from around the world that challenges assumptions about how spirituality can be defined within cultures both familiar and foreign.
