Ottorino Respighi: Quartetto Dorico P. 144

Blue Marble’s namesake program is a close examination of the human condition. It zooms in on what it means to be us, zooms out to consider our place in history, and ponders the universal truths that bind us together. Osvaldo Golijov’s Tenebrae offers a view of the Earth from space, and humanity’s place in the world. Caroline Shaw’s Three Essays explores the advent of language in many forms. Kevin Puts’ Dark Vigil discusses a dark and violent part of the human condition. Ottorino Respighi’s Quartetto Dorico reflects on all of these central human themes within a historical context. This program is also an expression of our responsibility as artists to create something that speaks to the time that we are living in.
