Echo Chamber Toronto: Poetry in Motion

Start: Thursday, July 21, 2022 7:30PM
End: Thursday, July 21, 2022 9:30PM

This concert explores the relationship of music and poetry with a program featuring Vaughan Williams’ evocative The Lark Ascending and Schönberg’s exquisite masterpiece Verklärte Nacht. The poetry on which these works are based have prevalent elements of movement, lending themselves beautifully to dance.
