(Delaware and Chester Counties, PA)鈥敶蠓⒘喜殊�檚 New Music Concert Series presents Dolce Suono Ensemble on Sunday, April 14 at 3 p.m. The concert is free and open to the public and will be held in the College鈥檚 Large Auditorium in the Academic Building on the Marple Campus (901 S. Media Line Road, Media, PA).
Dolce Suono Ensemble has been dazzling audiences and invigorating the music world since its founding by flutist and Artistic Director Mimi Stillman in 2005. Lauded by The New York Times as an 鈥渁dventurous ensemble,鈥� the group has garnered media acclaim and radio broadcasts on four continents. Dolce Suono performs in its home series in Philadelphia and has performed at venues including Symphony Space in New York, the Smithsonian American Art Museum in Washington, Princeton University, Bard College, and for the Philadelphia Chamber Music Society.
On April 14, the ensemble will present the world premiere of Fang Man鈥檚 Earth, a song cycle with renowned singers and a dance component. In her work, Fang Man set to music original Chinese poems by some of China鈥檚 most revered poets from the Tang Dynasty. The poems deal with themes of youth, nature and beauty. Celebrated choreographer Tim Early created a dance specifically for the music and performance space, which he will perform with Brittney Ryan. Grammy Award-winning soprano Lucy Shelton and bass baritone Evan Hughes of the Metropolitan Opera will perform with the ensemble.聽
The performance is part of the College鈥檚 month-long Articulture festival, which explores spirituality in art. Other Articulture events include:
