William Grant Still shares a radiant vision of the soul’s journey to the afterlife while John Adams takes us on a groovy, minimalist road trip. Eleanor Alberga transforms a famous cradle song into an exquisite lament on the fragility of our existence, and Brahms – inspired by the alluring voice of the clarinet – offers one of the most achingly beautiful twilight works ever written, the parting gift of an extraordinary artist and a life well-lived.
