There’s an excellent feature article in the current issue of The Jewish Advocate describing tomorrow night’s program with poet laureate Robert Pinsky and composer Tod Machover. The event, titled “I Sing the Body Electric”, is sponsored by the New Center for Arts and Culture and will take place at 7:30pm on Tuesday, December 7, 2010, at the Arsenal Center for the Arts in Watertown, MA. The poet and Pulitzer-winning classical music critic Lloyd Schwartz will moderate the event. We look forward to a thought-provoking and entertaining evening!
The Jewish Advocate article does a very nice job of describing the genesis of the collaboration between Pinsky and Machover that led to the new opera Death and the Powers.
Here is a link to the article (access to full text by subscription only).
