A Far Cry is thrilled to join Awadagin Pratt and Roomful of Teeth in Cincinnati for this once-in-a-lifetime event: a live preview of Awadagin Pratt’s upcoming album, Stillpoint. All new works to be performed, live.
Awadagin Pratt, celebrated pianist and conductor, explores the truth and beauty found within T.S. Eliot’s Four Quartets through its sibling universe in music. Joined by composers Tyshawn Sorey, Paola Prestini, Peteris Vasks, Jessie Montgomery, Jonathan Bailey Holland, Alvin Singleton and Judd Greenstein, and armed with seven newly composed works, Pratt embraces Eliot in a concert-length narrative that expresses an elemental truth…”at the still point of the turning world…there the dance is…and there is only the dance.”
This concert is free, but reservations are still required. Click below to learn more!
