Listen Later

In this special episode, we’re bringing you the chamber ensemble premiere performance of Notorious RBG in Song—a musical portrait of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg that illuminates aspects of her professional and personal life through song renditions of letters, conversations, and Court opinions—performed by Patrice Michaels. Michaels—composer, soprano, creator, and daughter-in-law of Justice Ginsburg— is joined by Inscape Orchestra's new music ensemble, pianist Andrew Harley, the a capella group Capital Hearings, and guest speaker Jeanette Lerman Neubauer.

This program features musical selections from The Long View: A Portrait of Ruth Bader Ginsburg in 9 Songs by Patrice Michaels, with music by Lori Laitman, Lee Hoiby, Stacy Garrop, Vivian Fung, and John Musto. The music director for this performance was Kuang-Hao Huang. Support for this program was generously provided by the Bernstein Family Foundation.
