Mezzo-soprano and BBC New Generation Artist Fleur Barron—called “a knockout performer” by London’s The Times—brings “The Power and the Glory” to Weill Recital Hall in her Carnegie Hall debut. Across 150 years of music and poetry, plus several traditions, the program presents a diverse and empathetic reflection on empires and identities, exploring colonial history through works by Montsalvatge, Valcárcel, Messiaen, Lecuona, G. Mahler, Schoenberg, I. Weber, Weill/Brecht, Delage, Kamala Sankaram, Ravel, Zubaida Azezi / Edo Frenkel, and Huang Ruo, plus a US premiere by Kian Ravaei and traditional Chinese selections. Alongside pianist Kunal Lahiry, Barron has performed this powerful program at the Aix-en-Provence Festival and top venues in London, Barcelona, Berlin, and beyond.
