Jeffrey Ryan’s Everything Already Lost

A digital production available online only, presented by Music on Main

Jeffrey Ryan’s new song cycle Everything Already Lost sets four poems by Jan Zwicky. Zwicky’s poetry explores music and nature, memory and emotion, and Ryan’s music invokes great beauty. Commissioned by baritone Tyler Duncan and pianist Erika Switzer, this new 4-movement, 22-minute song cycle receives its world premiere with Music on Main’s YouTube Premiere on November 19, 2020 at 5:00 PM (Pacific).
