"American Music" is a concert of works written for The Living Earth Show by eight of the most vital living composers, each of whom was born in, immigrated to, or utilizes the musical traditions created within the current borders of the United States. The show investigates the role of geography in shaping musical language. The collaborators built this program to ask the question: what does it mean for music, culture, or individuals to be considered “American” in 2018? It includes works by Nicole Lizée, Raven Chacon, Daniel Wohl, Sahba Aminikia, Sarah Hennies, Dennis Aman, Christopher Cerrone, Luciano Chessa.

American Music will be performed on Friday, March 15 at 8pm at East Quad Keene Theater, 701 East University, Ann Arbor MI.
