Bliss. This Autumn. Lecturance is a performance of sounds—a collaboration among Josefina Báez, Carlos Snaider and Tony Almont that strings together poetry, sounds and three songs from 20th century Bolero, Bachata and Merengue popular music traditions. Lecturance is based on the Josefina Báez book Comrade, Bliss ain’t playing and is the world premiere of music written for Bliss. Josefina Báez (La Romana, Dominican Republic/USA) is a performer, writer, theatre director, educator, and founder of Ay Ombe Theatre. Carlos Snaider is a recent graduate of Harvard University, where he studied with Vijay Iyer, Yosvany Terry and Lorgia García Peña. Tony Almont is a guitarist, composer, actor, and lead of the oldest rock band in the Dominican Republic (Toque Profundo).
Presented by the Harvard University Committee on the Arts in conjunction with the installation of Autumn (…Nothing Personal), by the artist Teresita Fernández, in Tercentenary Theatre.
