Songs of Courage, Love & Resolve, Megan Weikleenget’s inward-looking, soulful title, evokes the potent emotions and intellectual appeal of her repertoire in this elegant vocal recital. The music speaks to us directly, indeed, with an underlying sense of human commitment and personal stick-to-itiveness. Poignant 17th-c. evocations of spiritual life, polychrome hues permeating 19th-century salon music on a high order, and the familiar yet often underplayed pathos of mid-20th-century stage song….. an irresistible invitation to deep enjoyment and startling melodic richness. We simply can’t imagine a more potent tonic against our midwinter blues. Join us!
