Palaver Strings: I Believed in Magic
Palaver Strings, the Grammy-nominated string ensemble from Portland, Maine, frames I Believed in Magic as an evening of retold bedtime stories on gender, power, fear and desire. It includes two premieres, Teagan Faran's Fíjate, a tango-inflected answer to Berlioz's Symphonie fantastique told from the pursued woman's side, and Xenia St. Charles Iris Llyllyth's Canary Resuscitator, alongside Florence Price, Nina Shekhar and Mary Kouyoumdjian.
