Classical composers and literary types have long been drawn to Hollywood's glamour, glitz, grime, and grit. With their newest program, Mirror Visions Ensemble celebrates the influence and inspiration of movies with songs that pay homage to “the silver screen” — a cultural beacon for generations. The program will premiere MVE's latest commission, Griffin Candey’s Silver Songs with poetry by Rae Armantrout, Richie Hofmann, Rebecca Hoogs, Jeanne Murray Walker, Kate Northrop, and Frank O’Hara. The program includes a “mirror vision” (the same text set to music by different composers) with Howard Moss’ hilarious poem “Horror Movie” in songs by Chris DeBlasio and William Flanagan. The program gives a glimpse of Bertolt Brecht and Hanns Eisler’s disdain for Hollywood, provides melodic morsels of Erich Korngold’s film scoring, and commemorates Humphrey Bogart, Lana Turner, and other Hollywood royalty.

Each of these three composers, though it may not be evident at first, made significant contributions to diverse forms of musical entertainment. Eunike Tanzil’s delicate, pure and intimate work, Remembering, makes its much-anticipated Cincinnati premiere. Continuing in the same spirit of beautiful, cinematic music, Korngold’s Violin Concerto — performed by superstar Ray Chen — brings to life the Golden Age of the silver screen. Shostakovich’s Tenth Symphony, a deeply personal work, reveals his conflict with the Stalin regime and with the most human of expressions: love. This truly autobiographical narrative portrays a steadfast rebel who criticizes while practicing quiet disobedience.
