About the work: Titled with reference to the Israeli blessing wishing one a long and full life, Sharabi’s newest solo for Ms McGuire is a reflection upon the passage of time, of hope and the journey toward deeper personal authenticity, set within the elemental beauty of Chopin’s Nocturne In F Sharp Minor, Op. 48. Til 120, Again was created as an echo of Til 120, another solo commissioned of Sharabi, which premiered as a part of “The Desert Island Project” in 2008.
