Playing Politics: Dirges For Democracy

When: Fri., Nov. 4, 2016 at 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm

“Playing Politics: Dirges For Democracy” is the inaugural concert for Loud Box NYC.  The programmed pieces share a political focus ranging from musical settings of Donald Trump’s most offensive tweets to intimately personal art pieces. The goal of the event is to address the current polarizing political climate, as well as to encourage our audience members to vote in the November 8th general election

The featured ensemble is Schiele, a string quartet formed by Molly Aronson, Mujan Hosseinzadeh, Adrianne Munden-Dixon, and Michelle Painter. New works that will be presented are:

Ben MURPHY
-Shades of Sacrifice

Spencer SNYDER
-Trump Tweets
-When Bill Threw FDR’s Wheelchair Down the Stairs

Shelley WASHINGTON
-Say

Michael J. VINCE
-Elegy & Response

Event hosted by Jeff Steinbrunner. Tickets are $15 regular, $10 students, cash at door. Make sure to join us for the after-gathering at The Federal Bar across the street!
