Bridging Ancient and Modern Forms Through New Opera
Wed, January 13th, 7:30pm
Garrett Fisher and members of the Fisher Ensemble will perform excerpts from recent projects, including At the Hawk's Well, The Passion of Saint Sebastian, and Psyche, and talk about how old and new forms are brought together in these pieces.
Composer Garrett Fisher leads the Fisher Ensemble, an eclectic mix of collaborators, vocalists, movers, actors and musicians that harness ritual and myth to bring opera into the 21st Century. His operas have been presented at such places as The Chapel and On the Boards in Seattle, and HERE Arts Center and Judson Memorial Church in New York. His piece The Passion of Saint Thomas More is available on BIS.
