Come As You Are: Vulnerability in the Concert Space
Presented in collaboration with No Divide KC and the Lyric Opera of Kansas City, the purpose of Come As You Are is to break down barriers of access in the concert space. Concert music has contributed greatly to performing arts though it has sometimes stifled vulnerability, maintained privilege, and created exclusive expectations of formality. Such steep barriers create separation between creators, performers, and audiences. This can make the music and its spaces feel inaccessible to those who may feel they lack the privilege, training, and/or formality to be welcomed into an experience. Come As You Are aims to open up these barriers through reimagined musical experiences and storytelling in the concert space. Stott will perform new works by composers Meta Cohen, Kelvyn Koning, and Leah Reid.
