About This Program
Approximate length 1:15
Artistic Partner Abel Selaocoe returns to lead a fierce, otherworldly musical portrait of courage and transformation. Centered around the spirit of Joan of Arc, this program explores the intersection of spirituality, vision and resilience. From ancient chants to contemporary soundscapes and raw, emotional improvisation, the music reflects both the dreamer and the warrior, balancing serene reflection with driving intensity. Woven throughout is a sense of music as mental armor — a spiritual force that endures and breathes new life into works written centuries ago.
