Out of the Shadows

About the Event

In the shadow of the First World War, composers faced a world irrevocably changed.

From Debussy’s starkly ravishing two-piano piece and Bridge’s elegiac lament to Poulenc’s sardonically defiant wit, this program reveals how upheaval reshaped musical language—culminating in Korngold’s Suite for Left Hand, written for a war amputee and transforming loss into radiant virtuosity.

Presented by La Jolla Music Society.
