About
World premiere of Waking Up! by composer and JCM dept. chair Eric Hofbauer as part of a climate crisis collective action event featuring Longy School of Music of Bard College students, alumni, and faculty.
Eric Hofbauer’s Five Agents ensemble will perform their new suite Waking Up, inspired by and structured around Greta Thunberg’s 2019 galvanizing “How Dare You!” speech at the UN climate action summit.
Before and after this performance, at tables around the space, the audience can explore ways to engage and take action with representatives of select organizations and programs working on the climate crisis. As part of this creative collective action, Longy students and faculty will perform a sound installation piece Calling From the Four Corners as the audience wanders through this climate action ‘science fair’ of sorts before being seated for the concert program. ...
