2. Osvaldo Golijov: Falling Out of Time

The highly anticipated West Coast premiere of Grammy-winning composer Osvaldo Golijovs gripping new song cycle.TEXT ADAPTED BY Osvaldo GolijovFROM THE NOVEL BY David GrossmanWhat happens when the natural order of things is upended? Falling Out of Time is a new work from the Grammy Award-winning composer Osvaldo Golijov performed by an ensemble of musicians, including some members of the Silkroad Ensemble, led by violinist Johnny Gandelsman. Rooted in David Grossmans novel of the same name, this infinitely nuanced story in voices narrates a profound journey of grief and solace, a journey out of time as parents grieve the death of a child, a quest to comprehend a loss with no name.It so happens that we all are, as a world, living in a moment in which the natural order of things has been upended. More than ever, we are in need of stories that help us make sense of the broken pieces. Falling Out of Time is one such story.RUNNING TIME:One hour and 20 minutes, no intermission.PRELUDES @ THE WALLIS:Join us at 6:30 PM for a pre-concert conversation with the artists moderated by Classical California KUSC's Brian Lauritzen.
