Letters from the Past

Join us for a unique concert experience blending chamber music and spoken word, as we journey through themes of love, memory, and the echoes of forgotten voices. Through the lens of historical letters and evocative music, the program offers intimate insights into the relationships and artistry of celebrated composers. Composer, David Evan Thomas, will read excerpts of letters between the two couples for context.
