Blue sun, far off, a watery vein
In the cloud belt. — Todd Hearon (Atlantis)
Nightingale Vocal Ensemble presents the New England premiere of Gregory Brown's 2017 cantata un/bodying/s in Boston, MA on Oct 19, 2024. The piece, scored for 24 voices and set to text by local New England poet Todd Hearon, explores the history and future of the four 'drowned towns' that were 'disincorporated' to make way for the Quabbin Reservoir and provide water for Greater Boston. In providing water for our cities the difficult choices of the past ripple into the future as we confront our shared climate crisis. Also on the program will be Land-locked for double-choir, along with historic and modern works from the shape-note tradition. Project Produced by Greg Brown and Benjamin Perry.
