ORPHEUS & EURIDICE - Chicago Opera Vanguard
THEIR LOVE TOOK THEM TO HELL AND BACK!
ORPHEUS & EURIDICE Music & Lyrics by Ricky Ian Gordon
Costumes by Project Runway's Steven Rosengard [www.stevenrosengard.com]
A hit at Lincoln Center's American Songbook series and Opera Long Beach, ORPHEUS & EURIDICE receives its CHICAGO PREMIERE.
Orpheus enchants and hypnotizes the world with his clarinet. A magical retelling of the ancient myth, Gordon composed this Theatrical Song Cycle in Two Acts as a tribute to his lover, who died of AIDS in 1996.
"Ricky Ian Gordon's music is caviar for a world gorging on pizza." -The New York Times
Featuring: Ken Gasch - dancer/choreographer Rebecca Prescott - soprano Patrick Rehker - clarinet Logan Vaughn - dancer/choreographer
