Freedom Work: Folk Forms and Variations

FREEDOM WORK: FOLK FORMS AND VARIATIONS (2014)

Composed over 20+ years by musician and songwriter, Lenny Tischler, Freedom Work is a 5-part jazz/classical suite which explores the themes of struggle, freedom and creativity from the civil rights movements in the US. Performed for the first time at The First Presbyterian Church in Santa Fe, NM and in collaboration with the Santa Fe Branch of the NAACP, this video celebrates the first public performance with the goal of reaching new audiences and future opportunities to perform the composition.
