exquisite longing alert: Feb 4-5, 8pm

music! art! poetry! regret + longing!

"You’ll enter a visual landscape with the artwork of Thérèse Murdza, hear Northwest poets of several generations read from their poetry of memory, and experience the stunning singing of the expressive Resonance Ensemble in works including John Corigliano’s haunting Fern Hill, with mezzo-soprano Hannah Penn, known to local audiences for her work with the Portland Opera Studio. Featuring a special appearance by Oregon Poet Laureate, Paulann Petersen. Come hear an ensemble that The Oregonian calls “genuinely compelling,” with “the city’s best choral talent.”
