Gabriel will perform with Parker Ramsay and seven other vocalists from the Spoleto Festival USA in the American premiere of Nico Muhly’s The Street.

US PREMIERE

Music by Nico Muhly
Text by Alice Goodman
Parker Ramsay, harp
Marcus Amaker, narrator
Members of the Spoleto Festival USA Chorus

Buttressed by eight voices from the Spoleto Festival USA Chorus, harpist Parker Ramsay’s “nuanced, insightful playing” (BBC Music Magazine) reverberates through the sanctuary of St. Matthew’s Lutheran Church. With a score by Nico Muhly, The Street reveals the brutality of a man’s wrongful condemnation and suffering. Text by librettist and reverend Alice Goodman punctuates this meditative work, a contemplation of the everyday violence in our world.
