Department of Music and Arts & Lectures program
The Department of Music is excited to present a wonderful opportunity for our Music Majors and students enrolled in MUS 1, 15, 17, or 114. Arts & Lectures has generously reserved complimentary tickets for currently enrolled music majors and discounted tickets for students enrolled in MUS 1, 15, 17, or 114 to the following Fall 2024 events:
HARAWI realizes Olivier Messiaen’s deeply affecting hour-long song cycle for voice and piano in a newly physicalized and dramatized version. Throughout a dozen interconnected love songs, two dancers bring Messiaen’s romantic surrealism to life through their original choreography. All the artists are contributing members of American Modern Opera Company, an adventurous, enterprising collective. Their unique production of HARAWI connects the relationship between movement and music and adds a new dimension to Messiaen’s searing portrayal of love and loss in the human experience.
