The Lost Birds performed by the MC Voices (from the Master Chorale of Tampa Bay)

The MFA proudly presents the MC Voices from The Master Chorale of Tampa Bay performing Christopher Tin’s “The Lost Birds” – a musical memorial to bird species driven to extinction by humankind. Led by Artistic Director Matthew Abernathy, MC Voices will perform a haunting tribute to those soaring flocks that once filled our skies, but whose songs have since been silenced. It’s a celebration of their feathered beauty: their symbolism as messengers of hope, peace, and renewal. But it’s also a warning about our own tenuous existence on the planet: that the fate that befell these once soaring flocks foreshadows our own extinction.
