Legacies: USC - A Multigenerational Song Cycle

DESCRIPTION:
Legacies: USC is an original song cycle made collaboratively by a multigenerational coalition of established and emerging composers from the USC Thornton School of Music. Loosely based on their legacies—where they come from, what they would tell their younger selves, and where they may fit into a larger lineage of art and culture..

One of the premiere contemporary chamber ensembles in the United States, The Living Earth Show has presented commissioned multimedia productions since 2011, working with dance companies, visual artists, sculptors, poets, and other musicians to craft new work. Guitarist Travis Andrews and percussionist Andy Meyerson push the boundaries of technical and artistic possibility while amplifying voices, perspectives, and bodies that classical music has often excluded.

Presented by USC Visions and Voices. Organized by Andrew Norman and Ted Hearne (Music).

ADMISSION & CAMPUS ACCESS:
Admission is free. Reservations are required. Campus access is limited to registered guests and USC students, staff, and faculty with current USC ID. RSVP
