The poetry of Marie Howe has a special place in Ricky Ian Gordons heart and mind, both haunting and soothing. Without Music is a five-movement work in which Howes words and Gordons music together give voice to longterm grieving for a loved one lost to AIDS. The work was commissioned by Music Academy of the West for their 2019 Marilyn Horne Song Competition Winners Recital Tour.
