Midori Marsh: Under The Moon
Saturday, March 4, 2023
7:30 PM - 9:30 PM
With guest soprano, Midori Marsh and members of London Symphonia
With one face to the life-giving sun and the other gazing unblinkingly into the void, the mystery of the moon is her stark duality. In ancient Greece, the goddess moon Luna brings magic and breeds madness. She shines on a restful solitude, she illuminates a restless loneliness. She is the stuff of wolfish nightmares, she is the watchful shepherd that guards our sweet repose.
Co-curated by Symphonia’s principal flute Laura Chambers and soprano Midori Marsh, this cabaret reflects on the two sides of our sister Luna, the mystical moon, with such luminous treasures as Dvorak’s Song to the Moon, Osvaldo Golijov’s Lua Descolorida, Donizetti’s “mad scene,” and more.
