USU String Chamber Music Premieres Works from Two Composers in Crossing Borders Concert

By Whitney Schulte

The April 6 concert features the world premiere of Loved and Feared by composer Andrew Rodriguez. Rodriguez was previously a songwriter for and member of Close Your Eyes, a punk/hardcore band signed to Victory Records and touring the country relentlessly. He now uses this period in his career to formulate the core of his music that is both raw and dramatically expressive.

Utah State University String Chamber Music and the Caine College of the Arts present a two-part concert series called “Crossing Borders,” developed in partnership with the Gabriela Lena Frank Creative Academy of Music. The concerts will be livestreamed April 6 and 8 at 7:30 p.m. on ccapresents.usu.edu.
