Osvaldo Golijov Falling Out of Time

A literary-turned-musical meditation from the Argentian composer.

7:30pm – 9:00pm
Spaulding Auditorium, Hopkins Center for the Arts
Intended Audience(s): Public
Categories: Arts, Performances
Registration required. Fee required. Tickets required.

Golijov reprised his place as one of the classical world's leading figures with this new chamber opera written for 13 musicians including three vocalists. Rooted in David Grossman's novel of the same name, this infinitely nuanced story narrates a profound journey of grief and solace. Golijov is no stranger to addressing enormous ideas in his music. This time he explores the idea that connecting with the dead can only take place beyond linear boundaries since they are outside of time and place. Thus, a journey out of time begins as parents grieve the death of a child, a quest to comprehend a loss with no name.

Golijov will be at the Hop as the artists bring Falling Out of Time to life.
