The Athens Hip Hop Harmonic is a collective of local Hip Hop artists and University of Georgia music faculty/students that seeks to use music to celebrate the intersection of our musical, cultural, and racial identities. This session features the world premieres of co-created, boundary-breaking works by three pairs of Hip Hop artists and UGA faculty composers, with a live narrative and audience Q&A focused on the artistic inquiry and creative process that built this collaboration.
This event is part of the a2ru 2021 National Conference, "Sharing Stories: The Case for Art." It will be presented online; details on registration and more will be available here soon.
The event is also part of the university's Spotlight on the Arts festival. More information on the 2021 Spotlight on the Arts festival, including a schedule of events, can be found at arts.uga.edu as well as on the Arts Council Facebook page (facebook.com/UGAarts), Twitter feed (@UGA_arts) or Instagram (instagram.com/uga_arts).
