John Tavener's The Protecting Veil opens the program with music of striking beauty and spiritual depth, unfolding in waves of sound that feel both intimate and immense. After intermission, Dawn Avery's Grandmother Moon turns toward the natural world, followed by Valerie Coleman's Tracing Visions, a work that explores memory, movement, and the ways we carry the past with us.
