Join acclaimed composer Philip Daniel and soprano Grace Manley for a special performance featuring Libby Larsen’s My Ántonia, a moving song cycle that brings Willa Cather’s words to life through music. This evening also offers a glimpse into a new Salt Creek Song Festival commission by Philip Daniel, inspired by selected Cather texts, which will receive its world premiere at the festival in May.
Held at a private residence, this one-night-only event is a rare opportunity to experience Cather’s writing in an intimate musical setting.
