Matthew Evan Taylor: Life Returns 
Metropolis Ensemble with RAJAS

Composer/saxophonist Matthew Evan Taylor’s Life Returns is an evening-length composition that draws from African American, South Indian, and Western European musical practices. The culmination of a yearlong commission by MetLiveArts and the Grammy-nominated Metropolis Ensemble, in collaboration with mrudangam artist Rajna Swaminathan’s ensemble RAJAS, Life Returns is a melding of freely improvised and through-composed music celebrating resilience in the face of despair and the triumph of light and color over darkness.

This program is made possible by the Adrienne Arsht Fund for Resilience through Art and the New York State Council on the Arts.
