Announcing Gabriela Lena Frank and her Creative Music Academy as NewMusicBox’s latest Guest Editor with a focus on Eco-Citizenship!
Our ongoing Guest Editor series aims to celebrate a plurality of voices from across the nation and will feature exclusive content written, produced, or commissioned by a rotating artist or organization. Our second partnership is with the Gabriela Lena Frank Creative Academy of Music, a nonprofit founded by composer Gabriela Lena Frank that is centered around nurturing creativity and eco-citizenship in emerging and mid-career composers.
The first piece is an inspirational letter by Gabriela Lena Frank to her Creative Music Academy participants in which she explains the struggles she had composing a new work in response to the California Wildfires.
