Performed by actress Carole Epiney and classical guitarist Carl Alex, this poetic reading traces the night as an intimate, mysterious landscape. Selections from Emily Brontë, Rainer Maria Rilke, Charles Baudelaire, Alphonse de Lamartine and Renée Vivien unfold between spoken word and guitar, alternating melancholy, contemplation and quiet longing. Brief newly written fragments weave the poems into a continuous arc, while the pared-back musical accompaniment envelops the voice in a soft, reflective atmosphere.
