They perceived it as rejoicing to Jesus' death; I didn't see it that way at all. It's an amazing piece!<BR/><BR/>The Tan Dun Water Passion, btw, is also amazing visually and aurally.

Such an inspiration.<BR/><BR/>I had forgotten about the Berio connection. Wow, two incredible works... I've been looking for an excuse to work on the Berio Folksongs...

Th...I saw "Ayre" last spring and it was PHENOMENAL! The non-musician boyfriend hated it (he didn't like the barking) but being that Dawn is my ultimate favorite, it was hard for her to be anything but wonderful in my eyes. <BR/><BR/>The piece itself was just incredible (and the musicians were even more incredible!); commissioned as a companion piece to Berio's "Folk Songs," it was interesting to hear them performed in sequence. Your father might be interested to hear the folk influences in that piece. They're uncanny. <BR/><BR/>I hope you get to hear it soon. Have a safe and enjoyable trip in Atlanta.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
