Collage presents an intimate vocal concert highlighting 2024-25 Artistic Partner Tony Arnold and friends, including a collaboration with a choir of Longy School of Music students. The program centers on the bravery of finding one’s voice and giving voice to others. The centerpiece is the Boston premiere of Eric Nathan and librettist Mark Campbell’s dramatic song cycle, —called “quietly compelling” (Boston Globe) and “the best musical tribute Emily Dickinson has ever received” (Fanfare)—the story of two individuals and their struggles—Emily Dickinson’s to be a poet as a woman in a patriarchal society, and Thomas Wentworth Higginson’s to fight for the abolition of slavery and advocate for female writers’ voices.
