Curated by Derrick Spiva Jr., LACO AT HOME presents a previously recording Meet the Music education concert from fall 2019.
Amid cancellation of the Meet the Music concert due to COVID-19, LACO premiered an exclusive Meet the Music broadcast for Los Angeles County students and educators, and following the broadcast, students participated in a live Q+A session with Artist-Educator Derrick Spiva Jr. and Composer Teaching Artist Fellows Nicholas Bentz, Gabrielle Owens and Gillian Perry. The concert features LACO musicians performing works by Grieg and Saint-Georges, along with the premiere of compositions written by the CTA Fellows and elementary school students from the Los Angeles Unified School District.
