CONCEPTUALMOTION ORCHESTRA
The ConceptualMotion Orchestra was founded in 2001 in response to the tragedy of 9/11. It debuted at the University of the Streets.
"TODAY IN AMERICA" is a living poem, a time capsule of political and social events from a human rights perspective highlighting the contrasting images of the U.S. Constitution and the values that America was built on against the distortions of its current reality narrated in a collage format.
Please join us for the 2017 installment of Today In America.
