Seth Colter Walls of The New York Times called the world premiere of Craig Taborn’s Busy Griefs and Endangered Charms “one of the best shows I’ve experienced this season.” For the Boston premiere of this new evening-length work, which was commissioned by the Fromm Foundation as part of Claire Chase’s ongoing Density 2036 project, Taborn expands the final movement to include an intergenerational ensemble of Harvard students and guests.
