USC Visions & Voices presents Interstitial: A Book of (Musical Stories). Los Angeles is a magnet for diverse individuals who embrace, explore and celebrate their unique and intersectional identities.

For this performance, noted librettists and composers – including USC Thornton faculty members Veronika Krausas and Nicolas Lell Benavides, as well as Thornton alumna Saunder Choi – are teaming up to create six original pieces inspired by and amplifying the in-between cultures of the city, which will be performed by the nationally recognized chamber ensemble Brightwork newmusic and renowned vocal sextet HEX. Topics of this extraordinary, multi-part concert will include migration, gentrification, community and more. Following the premiere of the six exciting, new works, the creators, performers and audience will form rotating breakout groups to share their personal interstitial experiences in L.A.

This event is sponsored by USC Visions & Voices: The Arts & Humanities Initiative.
