Starry Night flows through a dreamscape of beautiful and unexpected sounds. It reflects on the night sky, evoking a sense of wonder at the vastness of space, distilling celestial motion into human scale, and exploring how dreams process emotions, memories, and even our self-conception.
Starry Night features music written especially for SHHH!! Ensemble by Canadian composers Jocelyn Morlock, Daniel Mehdizadeh, Monica Pearce, Mari Alice Conrad, and Harry Stafylakis. Shimmering throughout this exciting program will be selections by J.S. Bach and Mario Castelnuovo-Tedesco.
