Composers from Woody Guthrie to Ludwig van Beethoven have turned to music in the face of hardship—to find light in darkness, to hold fast to truth, to rise up, and to offer comfort, courage, and strength. In this Jukebox concert, we look to those composers who have created music for hope, resistance, and change—music composed in prison camps, music that calls out injustice, music that shouts dissent, music that is charged with the need to speak out and be heard. Co-hosted with Taconic Music. Brooke Quiggins-Saulnier and Joana Genova, violin; Stefanie Taylor, viola; and John Dunlop, cello. Hosted and curated by Matt LaRocca.
