The theme of loneliness over the past century is enacted through visual and musical performances by tenor Zachary Averyt, philosopher/artist Jeanette “Joy” Harris, visual artist Heather L. Johnson, and pianist/writer Elizabeth Newkirk. The series features a philosophical narrative shared through classical music and visual art, with each program exploring a condition of modern man: loneliness, self-reliance, Americanism, and nihilism.
