WE THE PEOPLE  

The greatest artists have been the voices of their communities. We the People is a residency / concert that celebrates the repertoire created by composers as a reflection of the civic dialogue. We the People is also a community engagement program for students and audiences to energize the arts moving forward in a continuing role of civic dialogue. In each site across the U.S. we’ll be looking to collaborate with students of any and all disciplines on campus: art, music, theater, writing, public policy, law, the sciences, and others to discuss, create,  Includes work by John Lennon, Nina Simone, Louis Andriessen and maybe some future classics created during an accompanying residency.
