The Lost Chord: January 21 - Liking the Viking

Brace yourself!  It’s Icelandic composer Jon Leif’s “Saga Symphony.”  Scored for tuned anvils; stones; whip; shields of iron, leather, and wood; great wooden containers played by large hammers; and six ancient long horns, or lurs, the work is an intriguing blend of extravagance and austerity.  We greet our fate with courage and stoicism, this Sunday at 10 pm.
