Copland House…UNDERSCORED: November 19, 1828

Music from Copland House time-travels across the centuries when it features Pulitzer prize-winning composer John Harbison’s provocative quartet for piano and strings entitled November 19, 1828, the day the beloved 19th-century master Franz Schubert passed away. This eerie, ethereal “musical hallucination” invokes moments in the Viennese composer’s life, his passage into the afterlife, and his conjuring of imaginary sounds and unrealized musical ideas. Co-produced with The Graduate Center of the City University of New York, this 45-minute virtual program includes a complete performance of this striking work, preceded by a brief introductory conversation with the artists, and followed by a live Q&A with viewers.
