| The clips at the Guettel website are substantial and compelling but support your takeaway. It’s hard to hear the story’s emotional stakes rise in the often halting, elliptical melodic lines. I thought "Forgiveness," in particular, stood out, and had some of the dark elegiac power of Floyd Collins, a score I continue to savor. Yet Collins offers a more imaginative theatrical conceit: entrapment in a cave delivering heart stopping unities. The episodic structure of Days feels too challenging to encapsulate in 90 minutes. |
