Land of Winter
Acclaimed as “a Canadian composer of riotously inventive works” (The New Yorker), Zosha Di Castri’s composition Cortège was recognized with the prestigious Jules Léger Prize for New Chamber Music in 2012. Experience it here at the Annex in its VSO premiere.
Renowned for its captivating qualities, Donnacha Dennehy’s music has garnered critical acclaim, with The Guardian describing it as “thrilling” and The New Yorker calling it “arrestingly beautiful.” Land of Winter is a mesmerizing suite that embarks on a journey through the intricate sonic textures of Ireland’s changing seasons, presented in twelve interconnected sections that represent the twelve months of the year.
