Donald Nally and The Crossing Premiere Gavin Bryars's The Last Days of Immanuel Kant in Philadelphia
Jun. 30, 2025
On June 14, The Crossing, led by Donald Nally, premiered Gavin Bryars'sThe Last Days of Immanuel Kant at the Presbyterian Church of Chestnut Hill in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. This performance continues Bryars’s longstanding collaboration with The Crossing. Bryars's new work sets excerpts from Thomas De Quincey's entertaining, sorrowful, and often humorous essay The Last Days of Immanuel Kant, which touches on the universal topics of aging and transformation, while incorporating the transcendental idealist's thoughts on time, space, and thinking – thoughts that made him one of the most influential philosophers in history.
