David Lang’s Pulitzer Prize-winning The Little Match Girl Passion, based on a Hans Christian Andersen story and modeled after Bach’s St. Matthew Passion, has become a beloved Met holiday tradition over the last decade. Now, the haunting piece returns in its starkest, most poignant form: a quartet of percussion-playing vocal soloists standing in front of The Met’s ornate Christmas tree. Join us for this wrenching contemplation of joy amid suffering, hope amid hopelessness, and beauty amid bleakness.

PAM TANOWITZ | ARTISTS AT THE CENTER
Songs of Songs
Choreography by Pam Tanowitz
Music by David Lang
Direct from its five-star UK run, the NYC premiere of Song of Songs fuses Pam Tanowitz’s choreography with Pulitzer Prize winner David Lang’s “dreamlike” (The Guardian) choral settings of the Biblical love poem, performed live by six musicians, with movement mined and abstracted from Jewish folk dance. Tanowitz’s intricate assemblage of style, form, and emotion "fills the stage with love” (The Guardian).
