Ultimate Composer Experience (a photo recap)

By /

This week was the world premiere and recording of my composition, The Thailand HRDs, commissioned by Protection International. Based off of the photo essay by Luke Duggleby entitled, For Those Who Died Trying.

This collection of pics gives you a look at this amazing experience.

For Those Who Died Concert - Aug 6, 2018 - World Premiere of Frank Horvat's composition, The Thailand HRDs
As Mivos performed, the projections above showed the audience Luke Duggleby’s photos from his essay, For Those Who Died Trying. I composed a 2-minute movement for each of the 35 photos in the series chronicling a person who has been murdered or abducted because of their activist work in their Thai community.
