SUMMARY:Underground Sounds: Sarah Grace Graves
DESCRIPTION:Tickets are now SOLD OUT for this Underground Sounds performance. An in-person\, first-come\, first-served waiting list will begin exactly 30 minutes prior to each performance time. \nJoin us for Underground Sounds\, a unique music series in the Buffalo Bayou Park Cistern! \nThis year\, the series features national and international artists presenting compositions inspired by the vast\, unique architecture of the Cistern and arranged especially for its extraordinary natural acoustics. \n  \nAbout This Program\n \nThree Names is an adaptation of Vespro\, a program Graves presented in Rome in July 2023 atop the Palatine Hill\, now reimagined for the cavernous Buffalo Bayou Park Cistern. The work was inspired by her 2022 performance for the Scelsi Foundation\, honoring soprano Michiko Hirayama\, a longtime collaborator of experimental composer Giacinto Scelsi. Hirayama\, who moved to Rome from Japan after World War II\, had a remarkable career spanning opera\, traditional Japanese music\, Roman free improvisation\, and Gregorian chant\, embodying an extraordinary vocal and stylistic range. This adaptation draws from Hirayama’s fascination with chant and Graves’s personal connections to spirituality and experimental music\, exploring vastness\, interiority\, and harmony between past and future selves. \n  \nCost: $25 \nPerformance Times: \n\nJune 19 at 6pm and 7:30pm SOLD OUT\nJune 20 at 6pm and 7:30pm SOLD OUT\nJune 21 at 6pm and 7:30pm SOLD OUT\nJune 22 at 6pm and 7:30pm SOLD OUT\n\nEach performance is 45 minutes. \n  \nAbout the Artist\nSarah Grace Graves is a composer and vocal performer working at the intersection between ritual and recital.
