Thanks Stephanie and Tim for inviting us to shoot at our favorite location! head, heart is from David Lang’s Album love fail. Music Performed by Lorelei Ensemble Lang composed love fail in 2012, and conceived of the work as a rumination on the timelessness of love, weaving together details from the story of Tristan and Isolde with more modern sources— specifically, the stories of contemporary author Lydia Davis. “These stories are oddly similar to the Tristan stories,” Lang writes in his liner notes to the recording. “They are also about love, honor and respect between two people, but they are much more recognizable to us.”
