Written during the height of the Covid pandemic, a complete presentation of Michael Hersch’s concert-length cycle “scars plummet to the corners” was delayed almost five years. Emi Ferguson and Jacob Rhodebeck give the NYC premiere.
The work was commissioned by the American Modern Opera Company (AMOC).
