The Marjorie Barrick Museum of Art and Nextet present Music at the Exhibitions, featuring new UNLV student compositions inspired by the exhibitions Living Here and Perception. The works will be premiered in the Museum’s galleries by student performers from the School of Music. Journey from one artwork to the next, hearing a new premiere at every stop. The composers will be on hand to talk about the relationship between the art on the wall and the music they have created. Each composition student was invited to choose an artwork and respond to it.
