Description

The latest work from Pulitzer Prize-winning composer David Lang, love fail marries evocative new music with timeless storytelling to tell a tale of love both found and unfulfilled, performed by the ravishing voices of legendary early music group Anonymous 4.

Assembled from a stunning range of texts—including medieval courtly love narratives, excerpts from Wagner's Tristan und Isolde, writings by Lang, and short stories by MacArthur Fellow Lydia Davis—Lang's breathtaking work distills a single, universal tale about desire's discontent, made luminous by one of the premier vocal ensembles of our time.
