High notes catch a lot of wind: songs in transit
To be able to arrive somewhere, you must first leave somewhere. Soprano Álfheiður Erla Guðmundsdóttir and pianist Kunal Lahiry follow the trail of migratory birds in music about longing, change, and the lure of distant places. From northern chill to warm jet streams, this recital sings of leaving, returning, and everything in between. A poetic flight past seasons, moods, and human vicissitudes, with wind under the wings and (woe)courage in the backpack.
