A Conversation with Composer Rollo Dilworth

The College of New Jersey Department of Music with a consortium of 20 arts organizations announces the commission of Weather, a large-scale work for choir and chamber winds by Dr. Rollo Dilworth that sets Professor Claudia Rankine’s poem of the same name. Rankine’s poem ‘Weather’ appeared on the front cover of the June 21, 2020 issue of The New York Times. It takes a hard look at the climate in America as it relates to systemic racism, the Black Lives Matter movement, and the global COVID pandemic. Here is Dr. Dilworth talking about the piece and his compositional process. Stay tuned for more information about the world premiere performances on October 29 and 30, 2021 at TCNJ.

Tides

Katrina Bragat ’20 knows how easy it is to feel alienated and have little to no representation in mainstream American media. Through her senior capstone, pre-COVID-19, Bragat was interested in helping Asian Americans like herself tell their own narratives and increase realistic representation of themselves. Though she was not able to complete that project she was able to produce a new video project called “Tides.” Warning: The video contains explicit language that may be offensive to some viewers.
