Music on the Edge

Pitt’s Music on the Edge series detours to Chatham University’s Laughlin Recital Hall to feature noted soprano Christine Brandes (pictured) and cutting-edge composer and pianist Eric Moe. The program includes performances of Schoenberg’s Book of the Hanging Gardens and the Pittsburgh premiere of selections from Moe’s Tough Songs About Death, as well as Sonnets to Orpheus. Brandes and Moe will also perform the world-premiere of Barbara White’s I hear a clear stream singing, beneath these frozen tears. - Meg Fair
