Ground Zero Memorial Lights in Lower Manhattan
We mark today's date with music of loss and remembrance, as well as self-reflection. In addition to works by Morten Lauridsen, Gabriel Fauré, and John Tavener, we feature Tibetan composer/performer Yungchen Lhamo's plaintive memorial hymn, "9/11."
Gabriel Faure / "La Chanson d'Eve," Op. 95 (The Song of Eve)
Alexander Scriabin / Six Early pieces
David Lang / "Under Orpheus"
Aaron Copland / In the Beginning
Richard Strauss / Metamorphosen
This week's question at the Evening Music Blog:
What type of change is needed to shore up general appreciation and support for the arts? Is it a function of government, or is there something we should be doing as arts enthusiasts?
