HEIR: inheriting the future at 560 Music Center, E Des Lee Concert Hall

Holding the future in one hand and the past in the other, this program features composers who reach for the stars. St. Louis composer Blake Hernton synthesizes the influences of his sound journey to present his new work for voice and strings. A member of the Boulanger dynasty sets the stage for a contemporary tribute and the distinctive voice of Jessie Montgomery intersects with the legacy of Leonard Bernstein in a work that illuminates and inspires.
