Confident Music Would Fly Us to Paradise addresses the juxtaposition between fantasy life on an opera stage and silent roles of ordinary daily life, and the ability to distinguish which is which. Much of the work here is a response to the poet's childhood when she was barely spoken to and only spoke if absolutely necessary. Themes explore the tension between silence and voice, consider the non-verbal art of dance, and veer within trajectories of familial relationships. Levin's astonishing language is threaded on a through-line of music.
