The Loveliness of Air – I can’t Breathe
Performance by Joseph Wytko and Anna Marie Wytko
The Loveliness of Air is an original electroacoustic composition based upon selected poetry and prose of children under the age of 15 who were victims of the Theresienstadt (Terezín) Nazi concentration and transit camp between 1942 and 1944. The Loveliness of Air was composed and its production engineered by Joseph Wytko and supported in part by a grant from Arizona State University. The work includes narrations in nearly one dozen languages and features saxophone solo artist Anna Marie Wytko, associate professor of music in the K-State School of Music, Theatre, and Dance.
A second performance will be held at the Volland Store in the Flint Hills, April 7, at 2 p.m. For more information: thevollandstore.com
