Cappella Clausura: "In tongues: Ruehr’s “Cassandra”"
2026-01-25 19:00 - 21:00 UTC | Emmanuel Church, 15 Newbury Street, Boston MA 02116
(NOTE: Sunday's performance time has been changed to 2 pm instead of 4 pm due to snow.) Elena Ruehr Cassandra; music by Julia Wolfe, Alissa Voth, and Isaac Roth Blumfield. Magic spells, prophecies, secrets, prayers; what happens when words mean more than what they say? Speech has the power to persuade, clarify, distort, and to move. In myth, Cassandra’s blessing is that she can see the future; her curse is that no one believes or understands her prophecies. For more information, call 617-993-0013 email manager@clausura.org.
