The Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum showcases the unique collection of collector and philanthropist Isabella Stewart Gardner and offers a unique space for performance series in addition to its beautiful collection, gardens and grounds. Here, Katherine presents Schoenberg's "Der kranke Mond", movement 7 of Pierrot lunaire, and Bernard Rands' Memo 7, based on a text by Emily Dickinson. 

Memo 7 is a tribute to the Sequenza series of Luciano Berio and to the poetry of Emily Dickinson, in a fragmentary and ultimately triumphant work adamant in its portrayal of one woman's ability to overcome abuse and violence.
 

Bind me — I still can sing —
Banish — my mandolin
Strikes true within —

Slay — and my Soul shall rise
Chanting to Paradise —
Still thine.
