Notas del programa
Now in its 10th Season, Art of Elan offers each spring and fall its acclaimed “Young Artists in Harmony” (YAH) program in partnership with the nationally recognized A Reason To Survive (ARTS), an organization that believes in the power of the arts and creativity to literally transform lives. YAH consists of weekly workshops where high school and community college students have the opportunity to explore musical composition with professional musicians, to create and be part of a professionally recorded public performance, to meet and collaborate with other like-minded music students, and to build a musical composition portfolio. Participants in YAH receive weekly mentoring and coaching from professional Art of Elan musicians who workshop and provide feedback on student works. This unique program culminates each semester with a collaborative concert that showcases original compositions the students create over the 6-10 week period, performed by Art of Elan musicians. Each concert is professionally recorded and is available for free streaming and download on Instant Encore.
In Conversation with Artist Danielle Dean
See a new musical work come to life during this open workshop of an Art of Elan commissioned film score written by composer Mason Bynes in 2023 in collaboration with interdisciplinary artist Danielle Dean, whose work draws from her multinational and multiracial heritage to explore the geopolitical and material processes that colonize the mind and body.
