Mnemosyne Arts Collective and Ekklesia Contemporary Ballet present:
"Spirit Voices": A program of Choral music, Dance, and Storytelling
An evening filled with choral music, dance, and captivating tales of underworld and afterlife from the ancient Mediterranean.
Hear our storytellers weave together poetry, myth, and magic -- from the tales of Demeter and Persephone, to comical curses and secret instructions for finding Heaven, buried in ancient Greek graves -- with extraordinary music from Gjeilo, Schütz, Hovland - even Paul Simon, and inspiring original choreography by Ekklesia Contemporary Ballet. Immerse yourself in a unique and beautiful performance where melody, myth, and graceful movements carry you along the soul's journey of loss, longing, and the reclamation of hope. Suitable for all ages, Admission is FREE.
Curious about Greek mythology?
Stick around for a post-concert Q&A about Greek mythology, the Underworld, o how it echoes in Early Christian traditions, with Prof. Kate Birney, Wesleyan Classical Studies Dept.
