the advantage of being small

about

Hub New Music’s program The Advantage of Being Small explores themes of democracy and the modern American experiences through the works of four composers. Commissions by Akshaya Avril Tucker, Elijah Daniel Smith, Angélica Negrón, and Daniel Thomas Davis each offer unique perspectives on identity, the individual’s place within the collective, and the meaning of “home.”
