“Oh, so is life—abatiwa!’’
Tonight At Eight
August 19, 1999 • Dayton Art Institute - Muse’s first sequel! The previous year’s concert came together very quickly (again, the creative team did not intend for the concerts to become annual events). Music director David Düsing was taken by the elements that really worked, how the loose theme of “a soundtrack to one’s life” had emerged (with the joyous and darker colors that entails) and he wanted to take it further. Some of the songs returned, joined by new ones and this time, a recording (again helmed by the illustrious John McClure) was captured.
