“No Prisoner Be”, a groundbreaking new album, based on the poems of Emily Dickinson is set for physical release on July 3. It is an electrifying artistic collaboration from multi-GRAMMY award winning singing icon, Joyce DiDonato and the genre-defying string trio of Nicolas Kendall, Ranaan Meyer and Charles Yang from Time for Three. The album was composed by the Pulitzer Prize-winning, Kevin Puts. Emily-No Prisoner Be is a theatrical song cycle that sets Emily Dickinson’s best-known poems alongside some of her lesser-known gems to music that moves from deeply intimate to absolutely electrifying virtuosity. It blends classical mastery with a rock energy in a vivid reimagining of Dickinson’s poetic universe.
