23-24 Poetry & Music Project Concert
April 6 @ 1:00 pm
FreeNow in its 7th year, the Poetry & Music Project connects student poets and their words with composers to create original music and explore the connections between poetry and music. | This concert will premiere 13 original pieces with words from poems selected from Nebraska & Iowa students and set to music by professional composers Sidney Marquez Boquiren and Amber Vistein. The statewide program, run in partnership with the Nebraska Writers Collective, seeks to amplify the voices of youth poets, both urban and rural, across Nebraska and Iowa. Opera Omaha has built a coalition of educators and music professionals in order to further promote the profound effect that artistic endeavors can have in the formative years of young imaginations.
