Alexis C. Lamb, composer

“Look Through” was initially inspired by a quote from Henry David Thoreau’s Walden: “Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other’s eyes for an instant?” What initially started for me as a lively project meditating on this quote turned into an in-time reaction to the news in America and the rest of the world in the month of May 2020. This piece is dedicated to the many, many people whose eyes I want to look through in order to better understand, support, and learn.
