Join us for our works in progress showcase of "Her Only Light": a new staged performance of the music of Connie Converse, one of the great lost musical voices of the 20th century. Chicago composer Ronnie Kuller has lovingly re-worked Converse’s music into new arrangements for a chamber ensemble of strings, woodwinds, and harp, with the vocal part performed by singer and interdisciplinary artist Emmy Bean.

Sara Coral and her incredible band will open. Don't miss it!

Livestream also available.
