Sara Dailey is a mezzo-soprano from Chicagoland with a passion for performing new and underperformed works. She has performed Caroline Shaw’s The Listeners and Julia Perry’s Stabat Mater, as well as many new operas and art songs by living composers. She frequently lends her voice to oratorio works, both as chorister and solois. Sara earned her Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees from Indiana University under the tutelage of Wolfgang Brendel and Julia Bentley, respectively.
The Wabash Avenue Music Collective presents a program characterized by strings but fortified by moments for clarinet and voice. Haydn’s String Quartet in D Minor, famous for its opening fifths, casts a melancholy spell, highlighting the expressive range of the strings. Mozart’s Quintet is a masterfully integrated chamber work in which individual strings occasionally sing out from center stage above the harmonious blend created by the clarinet. Featuring mezzo-soprano Sara Dailey in this performance, Raimi’s Runagate Runagate allows the human voice to do the same.
