"Rapoport Remembered" is a musical tribute to the extraordinary work of visual artist Sonya Rapoport (1923-2015). Imagined and developed by the composer-performer team Hae Voces, Kristina Dutton and Majel Connery, "Rapoport Remembered" is a musical meditation on Rapoport’s Anasazi Series, vivid color pencil drawings from the 1970s. Performing live with violin, vocals, keyboards, and a technical array of live processing, Hae Voces treats Rapoport’s drawings as graphic scores, reading their visual intensity and playfulness like notes on a page. Lighting design, projection of Rapoport's drawings, and Meyer Sound speakers complement this immersive live performance. "Rapoport Remembered" is commissioned and co-organized in partnership with the Sonya Rapoport Legacy Trust, and includes an installation of Rapoport's Anasazi Series. We are delighted to appear at the Kala Art Institute, where Rapoport exhibited during her lifetime. The performance lasts approximately 1 hour and concludes with remarks from the artists and Farley Gwazda, director of the trust. Tickets can be purchased online or at the door.

If you want to come to this show but have difficulty with the price point, we are offering $15-dollar student tickets at the door, or please talk to us about other options: haevoces@gmail.com.
