Anne Lovering Rounds
A Long Journey Called Home

Sunday, April 26 — 4:00pm

"A Long Journey Called Home" is a solo recital program and therapeutic coming of age story, presented by pianist and parishioner Anne Lovering Rounds. The recital first revisits the past, presenting canonical work from formative years at the piano. The second half of the recital offers pieces that became newly emotionally and technically available in adulthood, ending with Missy Mazzoli's stunningly cathartic 2022 work, "Forgiveness Machine." Through performance, personal essays as program notes, medical records, and images, the program tells the story of growing up musically and invites the listening community to be part of a journey still unfolding.

Admission is free.
