After his visit during MoM 2011, the singers of The Crossing were so enamored of British composer Gabriel Jackson that we set about engaging this internationally-recognized composer for a very special event. Gabriel will compose the third and final installment of\u00a0Pierre Joris\u2019 <\/b>poem cycle for\u00a0The Gulf (between you and me)<\/i>; this\u00a0promises to be an important evening for The Crossing, as we sing in Gabriel\u2019s thoroughly engaging musical language.<\/p>\n

To round out our introduction of Santa Ratniece\u2019s<\/b> work, Saline<\/i> sonically explores the depths and thoughts of a great salt lake; her expansive compositional mind offers an unimaginably creative, emotional description.\u00a0 As we celebrate the completion of our Fifth Annual Month of Moderns Festival we look to our past and present two audience favorites, James MacMillan’s<\/b> Gallant Weaver<\/i>, and Jonathan Dove’s<\/b> In Beauty May I Walk<\/i>. And, finally, the season closes as we began, with a late work of great interest by that controversial patriarch of modern and postmodern music, John Cage<\/b>.<\/p>\n
