The Bridge: A Musical Synthesis Between BIPOC Writers And Diasporic Music
Files
Abstract
My culminating experience project, The Bridge, is a musical synthesis between writers of African Descent and diasporic music. I studied the writing of 5 different women: Amina Gautier, Maya Angelou, Ijeoma Umebinyuo, Toni Morrison, and Donna Kate Rushin. I treated the music of each writer differently, connecting the music directly to either their writings or personal history. The project was completed in the form of 5 compositions and a twenty-minute lecture-style presentation.
