Add. info on Past Spring/Summer '17 Highlights:

In April, I premiered Emiliano Branda's "Queens Anthem" at the Queens Museum as part of "Protest Forms: Memory and Celebration: Part II" for the opening of Marinella Senatore's exhibition.  

​In May, I had the opportunity to revisit curation for an evening at St. Lydia's Church in Brooklyn for Angela Morris's Brackish Series. which happens monthly. All the short sets were centered on text and the voice, dance, and music. I had the great good fortune of working with and presenting these wonderful artists:

First Set: improvising with Dafna Naphtali (voice, Max MSP), Sarah Bernstein (voice, viola), Martita Abril (dance) --all original texts by each of the musicians (and yours truly), in addition to Adrienne Rich's "What Kind of Times Are These"

Second Set: Jasmine Wilson (voice, composition, text), Anjna Swaminathan (Carnatic violin), Maria Grand (saxophones), and Martita Abril (dance).

Third Set: Sasha Zamler-Carhart (voice, texts by Afro-Panamaian poets), Jesse Greenberg (glockenspiel), and Quilan Arnold (dance).

Fourth Set: Anaïs Maviel (voice, percussion), Asiya Wadud (spoken word, text), and Shantelle Jackson (dance).

In June, I was involved in 6 dance pieces as composer and/or performer in the culmination of Wally Cardona, and Jennifer Lacey's 5-year project, THE SET UP in collaboration with master dancers I Nyoman Catra (Balinese Topeng) Proeung Chhieng (Cambodian), Junko Fisher (Okinawan), Saya Lei (Mandalay-style, classical Burmese), Jean-Christophe Paré (French baroque), Kapila Venu (Indian Kutiyattam) and Heni Winahyuningsih (Javanese refined) on Governor's Island.
