Experience She Is Called: Dear Stranger, a new production from Brooklyn Youth Chorus

SHE IS CALLED: DEAR STRANGER, a new production from Brooklyn Youth Chorus, is online and ready to be explored.⁣

This new (virtual) production is being presented via a media-rich website and features newly-commissioned choral works, as well as photos, recorded letters and poetry from the singers, inspired by the songs’ themes and the singers’ perspectives/experiences.⁣
⁣
SHE IS CALLED: DEAR STRANGER features new compositions from four celebrated composers - Nathalie Joachim, David Lang, Alev Lenz, and Shara Nova - and features significant artistic contributions from the singers themselves. In collaboration with the students are four theater artists - Janani Balasubramanian, Charlotte Brathwaite, Sunder Ganglani, and Tareke Ortiz - who, through ongoing workshops, collaborated with the Chorus to bring this ambitious project to life.⁣

Presented by UCLA's Center for the Art of Performance.
