Earlier this year I was thrilled to be selected to participate in Art Song Lab 2015, a unique cultural event which pairs poets with composers. I feel fortunate to be collaborating with the talented Brian Topp. Our piece called Our Thirst, will premiere downtown Vancouver in a culminating concert, performed by classically trained performers. I’m grateful to ASL directors Ray Hsu and Michael James Park who encouraged me to apply and hope to see you at the Art Song Lab 2015  SONGLAUNCH,  Vancouver School of Music’s Pyatt Hall, home of the VSO, Fri, June 5 at 8 PM. Please find the program and ticket information here.
