On Friday, May 30th, come see Poetry Inside Out students in concert at the de Young Museum for a special collaboration with the ADORNO Ensemble . The event features the world premiere of Odes to Neruda, a song cycle by Peruvian-American composer Gabriela Lena Frank, who has set Chilean poet Pablo Neruda's poetry to music. Poetry Inside Out students will accompany the music with Neruda-inspired original poems and translations in English and Spanish. The students' poems will be generated at a writing and composition workshop with ADORNO at the Berkeley Jazzschool on May 27th.
Stanford University professor John Felstiner joins the young poets and ADORNO at the de Young performance. Dr. Felstiner, author of the award-winning book Translating Neruda: The Way to Machu Picchu, will share his knowledge about the musical aspects of Neruda's life and work.
