Unfinished Business is a classical song recital centered around that which haunts us in this life and beyond. Regret, yearning, and loss all represent incomplete journeys and potential futures that we carry with us, even past their expiration. Combining French, German, and American songs from the last 200 years, this performance evokes the curiosity and pain of unrealized possibilities from the voices of artists past and present. By acknowledging these suppressed dreams, can we step closer to accepting the grief that comes with them?

Presented by soprano Abagael Cheng and pianist Michele Wong and hosted by Leslie Nolan Design, this program features works by Undine Smith Moore, Clara Schumann, Eve Beglarian, William Grant Still, Hector Berlioz, Claude Debussy, Francis Poulenc, and more. Audience members will be invited to employ their creative practice with the inspiration of this sonic world. Art and journaling materials and will be available throughout the space and audience members are encouraged to share their work and reflections after each section of the program. Light refreshments will be provided.
