A Winter's Journey Promotional Graphic

A Winter’s Journey tells the story of a man and woman who each wander through the cold of winter mourning their lost loves. Pairing a curated selection of Schubert’s Winterreise (in an English translation by Jeremy Sams) with some of Maury Yeston’s companion song cycle December Songs, this fully staged performance piece uses visual elements, dance, and supertitles to assist in the storytelling brought to the stage by the singers and the piano. Jennifer Blades and Jason Buckwalter play the part of the man and woman. Nicole Kelsch is the dancer. Andrew Stewart is music director and pianist. Originally conceived of and directed by Jennifer Blades.
