The Next Best Thing: Connecting Through Music in Spite of Everything

April 15, 2021 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm

Part of our No Reservations series, join Dr. Michelle McQuade Dewhirst on The Next Best Thing: Connecting Through Music in Spite of Everything.

The pandemic has forced musicians to rethink the ways in which they relate to their audiences and to each other. In this talk, I’ll discuss pieces I’ve written in the past year for musicians who are finding new ways to connect in a time of crisis.

Below are the full performances of the pieces being performed during the event:
