Description
For half a century, Rothko Chapel has been the stillest place in Houston. We’re a city where too much is never enough, where the hustle never stops. But Rothko Chapel is minimal. And meditative.
This week, the chapel finishes its year-long celebration of its 50th birthday with new music by composer Tyshawn Sorey. Today, we talk about all of that with City Cast culture correspondent Chris Gray; and Sara Rothenberg, director of Da Camera, Houston, which co-commissioned the piece.
