(More politically-aware classical musicians! - promoted by David)
A group of New England Conservatory students have put together a concert and panel discussion focusing on the relationship between music and current political issues, or more specifically, human rights violations in wartime.
The concert will feature three new compositions, one of which incorporates clips from a broadcast on Guantanamo Bay by This American Life. The panel discussion following will be headed up by Harvard PhD's, faculty of NEC, Tufts, and National Defense University, and a reporter from the Boston Globe.
The event on Thursday, March 12th is free, open to the public, and to be followed by a reception.
