Charleston Jazz Festival | The College of Charleston Faculty Jazz Ensemble

College of Charleston

Experience the New York premiere of Ted Hearne’s Dorothea, a Carnegie Hall co-commissioned song cycle by an artist “among the most adventurous creative forces in contemporary music today” (The Nation). These direct and poignant songs color the pathos-ridden, darkly funny work of poet Dorothea Lasky with rhapsodic textures, a synth-pop veneer, and charismatic duets with Hearne and acclaimed vocalist and electronic artist Eliza Bagg.
