Ford Center for the Performing Arts<\/strong> with a reception to follow.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cecil Price Walden<\/strong>, a <strong>University of Mississippi<\/strong> alumnus, is the composer of the piece and will also be playing piano. He will be joined by fellow University of Mississippi alumna <strong>Dr. Alice Anne Light<\/strong>, assistant professor of voice at <strong>Texas Tech University<\/strong>, who will be singing mezzo-soprano, and <strong>Kristy Kristinek<\/strong> from <strong>Lubbock, Texas<\/strong>, will be the featured artist. As the audience listens to the music provided by Walden and Light, Kristinek will be painting on blank canvases throughout the duration of the performance.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis idea was born through feelings of hopelessness, loss, loneliness, and exhaustion. This work is our response to living as young adults in the South in the 21st century: our roots run deep, yet we see that tradition is no longer serving us. We experience this throughout almost every facet of our existence: family, love, sexuality, religion, politics, war, and survival. Many feel the need to reassess who we are and where we are going. This piece endeavors to give voice to this new reality,\u201d say the artists.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis work reimagines the concept of a song cycle by integrating the creation of visual art into the experience,\u201d states <strong>Nancy Maria Balach Schuesselin<\/strong>, chair, of the <strong>Department of Music<\/strong>.\u00a0To reserve your complimentary tickets contact the UM box office at umbo@olemiss.edu or call 662-915-7411.
