composer

The Live Nation-produced event at the Los Angeles Equestrian Center was booked as a compendium of cutting-edge composers to showcase their film work in an unorthodox live setting.

The main works on the New York-centric program were by two great 20th century composers, Bartók and Charles Ives, who were treated as outsiders by the city’s musical establishments during their lifetimes.

Also landing in time for the celebration is a new documentary, “Strange Journey: The Story of Rocky Horror,” directed by Linus O’Brien, son of “Rocky Horror” author and composer Richard O’Brien.

Videos of fans dancing to the theme song by composer Mike Post have been popping up on social media for months.

We must invite d/Deaf and hard-of-hearing people not just into the audience, but into the center of the creative process as composers, performers and innovators.
