Weaving together chamber classical, folk, torch song, and experimental music, Dorian Wood’s Canto de Todes is a 70-minute distillation born from Wood’s acclaimed 12-hour composition and installation. The title—Spanish for “Song of Everyone”—is inspired by a lyric of the late Chilean singer and songwriter Violeta Parra. Canto de Todes emphasizes the urgency of music as a vessel for social change, and honors the ancestral trajectory of Wood’s Costa Rican-Nicaraguan family and their experience in the U.S.
