It’s time for reflection, change, and action…

Never One Thing invites you on a transformative musical journey that celebrates diversity, reflection, and the power of change. In her debut as Associate Artistic Director, Heather Mitchell presents a captivating program that weaves together a tapestry of sound, emotion, and thought-provoking themes.


From the triumphant Song of Miriam by Franz Schubert to the haunting beauty of Randall Thompson's Alleluia, to the contemporary resonance of Vienna Teng's Hymn of Acxiom, this concert promises to challenge and inspire. Join us as we explore the rich harmonies of Gabriel Fauré, the uplifting melodies of Gwyneth Walker, and the soulful rhythms of Ysaye Barnwell.

Never One Thing is more than just a concert; it's an invitation to reflect on our shared humanity, embrace the winds of change, and be moved to action. Let the beauty of this repertoire and the power of the performance wash over you, leaving you refreshed, inspired, and ready to face the world with renewed purpose.


Featuring our collaborative pianist and senior artist-in-residence, Ting Ting Wong, Never One Thing will take place on Saturday, February 22nd at 4pm at the Philadelphia Episcopal Cathedral.

ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Robin Eaton's artwork takes its cues from MCP’s 151st season theme “It’s Time,” and images inspired by snippets of text from pieces in the program. Time is depicted by the sky’s changes throughout a 24-hour cycle, from dawn to midday to dusk to night, in a clockwise direction. The sky was applied in watercolor washes blending into each other. On a separate sheet of yellow-gold wash, the individual images were drawn in pencil, cut out and arranged in a roughly clockwise fashion in a ring over the sky background. The ring is a reference in the final line of the song “Never One Thing” as well as an allusion to the cycle of time.
