  • The Cell 338 West 23rd Street New York, NY, 10011 United States (map)

Awakening is a staged, collaborative song recital inspired by the tradition of protest music.

This intimate, original program of songs, chamber works, and spoken poetry centers themes of rebellion and solidarity and poses the question: what does freedom look like to you? Spanning five languages (Chinese, English, French, German, and Persian), Awakening addresses social injustices of gender, race, and class through an international lens. The recital features works by György Kurtág, Eve Beglarian, Gilda Lyons, Juhi Bansal, among others, as well as three world premiere chamber works. The ensemble includes Abagael Cheng and Sadie Spivey (sopranos), YoonJung Hwang (violin), and Ava Linvog (piano).
