Sarah Hennies, Terry Berlier & The Living Earth Show: A Kind of Ache • IN-PERSON

A Kind of Ache is a multimedia installation and concert from composer Sarah Hennies, sculptor and conceptual artist Terry Berlier and electroacoustic duo The Living Earth Show (Andy Meyerson and Travis Andrews) that reimagines a world designed from and for a queer identity. The drums-and-guitar duo will play Hennies’ score on Berlier’s sculptures, using objects, music and their imaginations to wonder “What would it feel like to be the majority?”

Las Cantoras Album Release Party • VIRTUAL

Between 1960 and 1980, Venezuelan architect and folklorist Oswaldo Lares recorded more than 1,000 tracks of rural songs throughout his native Venezuela. In them, he captured little known genres and singers that would later become emblems of Venezuelan folklore. In the forthcoming album Las Cantoras, Venezuelan Afro-soul artist Betsayda Machado collaborates with Lares to curate a compilation of these archival recordings featuring female singers. Through this unique collaboration, the two will release a rarely seen side of Venezuela.

Crisscross choreographed by Paetyn Lewis

In Crisscross, Lewis explores the stages and effects of anxiety and depression through a lens of femininity. Movements inspired by modern dance and hip hop create an abstract commentary on the struggles of overthinking and isolation among young women today.

Strangers choreographed by Megan McDevitt

Borodin’s Polovtsian Dances: UMD Symphony Orchestra - IN PERSON
