UA Centennial Hall

Narrated by Neal Conan, host of NPR’s Talk of the Nation, with projected images from the Hubble Space Telescope, this concert marries music to words. Inspired by pictures from the space telescope, the evocative music of the Celtic/early music Ensemble Galilei is a perfect backdrop for readings from a Navajo creation myth and the works of Stanley Kunitz, Jim Harrison and William Shakespeare. Audiences have been swept away by this extraordinary combination of lyrical poetry, images that transform our understanding of the universe and what critics have described as “music that speaks to the heart in ways that transcend mere language.”
