Our spring concert draws its pieces from A Year of Deep Listening, a project of the Center for Deep Listening at Rensselaer. For twelve months beginning May 30, 2022, the center celebrated what would have been composer Pauline Oliveros’s 90th year by publishing a text score every day, sourced from hundreds of composers worldwide.
