What to listen for
Listeners can expect to hear Davis's bass voice in the lowest solo line of Mozart's Requiem, a work completed after the composer's death in 1791 and finished by his student Franz Xaver Süssmayr. The bass solo appears prominently in movements like the "Tuba mirum," where a solo trombone answers the voice in a dialogue meant to evoke the last judgment. The program opens with Caroline Shaw's Entr'acte, a shimmering, harmonically restless piece for string orchestra, and Anna Clyne's Sound and Fury, a dramatic contemporary work, before turning to the Requiem's mix of solemnity and operatic weight.
