| Description: | Iannis Xenakis:
Serment
A Helene
A Colone
Medea-Senecae
New London Chamber Choir
Clement Power director
New Music Players
New London Chamber Choir and New Music Players present a concert exploring Xenakis' deep engagement with the ancient culture of his homeland, refined through the experience of revolution and exile. Starkly direct in expression, the works range from the stately, monumental A Colone to the searingly archaic sounds of the sea and rocks in Medea-Senecae.
