Please join us for the virtual premiere of Annika Socolofsky’s mesmerizing new work, “to sing of sins,” Copland House’s second HARVEST Commission, recognizing outstanding young artists from its acclaimed CULTIVATE emerging composers institute. The meditative piece features the Music from Copland House ensemble embroidering, responding to, or in dialogue with electronic samples of the composer’s own fiddle and accordion playing famed, and more prominently the Irish singer Iarla Ó Lionáird, who intones words from the old spiritual poem, “Lament your own sins.” Includes a brief introductory conversation with the composer and singer, as well as a live post-performance Q&A with viewers.
