After Reading Shakespeare
Works for solo cello by Ned Rorem, Paul Morevec and Lewis Spratlan.
After Reading Shakespeare features literary-themed solo cello suites by three beloved Pulitzer Prize-winning American composers. These witty and lyrical suites bring to life characters and quotations from Shakespeare, Mark Twain, and Rambo/Rimbaud. Matt Haimovitz will play works from After Reading Shakespeare in more than 40 cities this season, including exclusive appearances at Borders Books and Music locations as part of ‘Borders on the Road.’ Of the performances, Borders says: ‘Pushing classical to its beautiful limits, cellist Matt Haimovitz delivers a stunning set – putting the sounds of cello into the ears of younger audiences everywhere.’
