a 21st century “LIEDER-PALOOZA” – WQXR, New York City Classical Radio, April 2011
The next 21c Liederabend will be held at BAM’s Next Wave festival in 2013! We are thrilled by this, and are actively curating now.
Here are some accolades!
“BEST of 2009″ Time Out NY.
“Beth Morrison Projects, in league with Opera on Tap and VisionIntoArt, REINVENT THE ART OF THE SONG RECITAL for GENERATION Y” -The New Yorker, April 2011
“Producer Beth Morrison (dubbed by Zachary Woolfe of The New York Observer as “the opera lady who likes it crazy”) along with Opera on Tap and VisionIntoArt have created a series devoted to contemporary opera and art song that is continually satisfying — and continually ambitious.”
- The New Yorker, April 2011
VisionIntoArt is thrilled to co-produce (alongside Beth Morrison Projects and Opera on Tap) 21c Liederabend, an evening of 21st century post-classical song featuring “a starry constellation”
(Time Out New York) of living composers.
21c Liederabend is the most ambitious comprehensive art song festival of the NY season, with 20 new pieces of vocal music (and 8 world premieres!) over 3 nights at the Kitchen. It featured an explosive array of styles, and a visual palate of projection design. Newly commissioned films and sculptural lighting design were included.
“The composers involved in this new Liederabend…span New York’s vibrant, inclusive new-music scene. Some…have shaped tastes for decades. Others like Sarah Kirkland Snider, David T. Little and Matt Marks are among the brightest lights to emerge in recent seasons… Joining those composers…is an equally starry constellation of vocalists, actors, stage directors and video artists.”
