Into the Shadows: An Evening of Chamber Music

The Detroit Symphony Orchestra & The American Romanian Festival, celebrating its 20th-anniversary season, present an evening of works centered around the subject of death. The first work on the program, Rota II by Romanian composer Cornelia Tăutu, is a duet for violin and violoncello that opens slowly and austerely and evokes the contemplative nature of a long-forgotten ancestral melody. George Crumb’s reaction to the horrors of the Vietnam War is expressed through his threnody Black Angels. For tickets, visit https://www.warmemorial.org/eventcalendar11/jl4gbt47qy21zgtzu9jbrwzfw51ogk
