Chaconne Concerto Grosso
Scherzo
   

  The Exiles
Music by Arnold Schoenberg
Male-female duet – 18 minutes


Limón’s original program note was taken from John Milton’s Paradise Lost: “They, looking back, all the eastern side beheld of paradise, so late their happy seat.” This virtuosic duet, a dramatic presentation of Adam and Eve’s expulsion from the Garden of Eden, has three sections: “The Flight,” “The Remembrance,” and “the Cherubims and a flaming sword”.
