Michael Hersch's Album, across...in grief and detail, Features Three PSNY Works

Feb. 27, 2026

Michael Hersch's new album for Kairos was released last month. The recording - titled "across...in grief and detail" - features several works available from PSNY, including across … in grief and detail, sapped from me broken, and Miserere mei Domine. Learn more and purchase the album here.

Additionally, Michael Hersch was recently named the inaugural recipient of the  Johns Hopkins University Affiliated Fellowship at the American Academy in Rome. During his upcoming residency, Hersch will focus on two major compositional projects that explore themes of loss and reflection through classical sources. The first is a new monodrama inspired by the Philomela myth from Ovid's Metamorphoses, written for soprano Ah Young Hong—a fellow faculty member at the Peabody Institute and Hersch's frequent collborator—and mixed ensemble. The second is Symphony No. 4, a work scored for vocal ensemble and mixed instrumentation drawing on text from Sophocles' Philoctetes.
