Loop38

https://www.loop38.org/calendar/2023/5/4/will-and-soul

A concert celebrating humanity’s inherent creativity, power, and will to thrive as we face life’s challenges; featuring works by Chen Yi, Carolyn Chen, George Lewis, and a brand new commission.

Our Call For Proposals is searching for a collaborative composer to create a new musical work to be premiered at this event.  The new piece will involve a three-way collaboration between the selected composer, Loop38, and Deborah D.E.E.P. Mouton, a Houston-based writer and performer and Houston’s first Black Poet Laureate. Ms. Mouton is creating a literary work to be paired with the musical commission; her text will draw upon the theme of the program, the ethos of the Rothko Chapel, and the idea of our shared humanity.
