Theatre of Voices
Julia Wolfe’s Italian Lesson, a Cal Performances co-commission composed specially for these remarkable singers, is a charming bilingual romp. The music is a setting of Cynthia Zarin’s poem of the same name, the English and Italian text suggesting rhythms, tempos, and colors in the score.
Michael Gordon’s A Western is inspired by the 1950s Hollywood western High Noon, starring Gary Cooper and Grace Kelly.
