AMOC* presents Anthony Cheung’s the echoing of tenses, a large-scale song cycle for tenor, violin, piano/keyboard, and pre-recorded sounds, that sets the texts of seven prominent, intergenerational Asian-American poets. These poets perform their words live within the production, sharing reflections on memory, cultural and personal identity, family, migration, and loss. the echoing of tenses was conceived for the company by AMOC* violinist Miranda Cuckson and serves as the epic conclusion to the Run AMOC* Festival at Lincoln Center, the American Modern Opera Company’s most significant artistic endeavor to date with a bold slate of opera, dance, and music.
