Places We Know: with Shawn Jaeger and Longleash

LAM-hosted digital space on FB live/Zoom

Saturday, April 10 | 4 pm

Composer Shawn Jaeger (a Louisville native and YPAS alum) pays a virtual visit to LAM to chat about his musical beginnings in KY, his work as a composer, and his creation process for a unique new work, Places We Know, written for violin, cello, and MIDI keyboard. Shawn and Longleash, the commissioning ensemble, will share some behind-the-scenes tidbits about making the field recordings and videos that inspired the piece, and explain the technology that makes the piece’s unique sounds possible. Following a virtual performance of selections from Places, attendees will have a chance to participate in a Q&A moderated by LAM faculty Jacob Gotlib, and take away exciting ideas and activities that they can use in their own compositions, field recordings and creative projects.

Students and their families can participate via Zoom and the public is welcome to stream via the LAM Facebook page.
