New York Times previews Music for New Bodies
Joshua Barone of The New York Times previews Saturday night’s premiere of composer Matthew Aucoin and director Peter Sellars’s Music for New Bodies, inspired by the poetry of Jorie Graham.
“In five movements sprawling across 70 minutes, “New Bodies” sets poems by Graham about the earth and humanity that are told in shifting voices and registers, channeling natural forces and at times evoking the mind under anesthesia. Although its expansiveness and form recall Mahler’s “Das Lied von der Erde,” it is neither a song cycle nor a symphony. It is perhaps closest to opera, though mostly, it is what it is.”
