White Light Festival
This event has already occurred
Description
Estonian composer Arvo Pärt likened his music to white light that contained all colors, and saw “the spirit of the listener” as the prism where those colors could appear. Lincoln Center’s White Light Festival is dedicated to exploring that intersection between art and spirit across a number of disciplines. This year’s event—the 10th anniversary of the festival—includes the US premiere of artist Hiroshi Sugimoto’s reinterpretation of the Japanese play The Love Suicides at Sonezaki, the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra performing The Abyssinian Mass by Wynton Marsalis, Ireland’s Druid Theatre Company performing Shakespeare’s Richard III and Wagner’s Tristan and Isolde, Act II from the National Philharmonic Orchestra with soprano Christine Goerke and tenor Stephen Gould.
