The Merwin Conservancy presents a Talk with Composer & Sound Artist Leilehua Lanzilotti in the McCoy Theater 6-7:30pm Apr 14/24

Leilehua Lanzilotti

The Merwin Conservancy's Green Room series returns with Kanaka Maoli composer and sound artist Leilehua Lanzilotti. A finalist for the 2022 Pulitzer Prize in Music, Lanzilotti will speak about Lili'u, a new opera celebrating the legacy of the last Queen of Hawaii. Set in 1895, when Queen Lili'uokalani was imprisoned for almost a year in Iolani Palace, Lili'utells the story of the Queen's life at a time of great upheaval. Lanzilotti will share excerpts from her libretto, sourced entirely from the writings of Lili'uokalani—including her newly published bilingual diaries, historical research, and in particular, the seven prison songs.

Leilehua Lanzilotti (b. 1983) is a Kanaka Maoli composer / sound artist. A “leading composer-performer” (New York Times), Lanzilotti's work is characterized by expansive explorations of timbre. Lanzilotti’s practice explores radical indigenous contemporaneity, integrating community engagement into the heart of projects. By world-building through multimedia installation works and nontraditional concert experiences/musical interventions, Lanzilotti's works activate imagination around new paths forward in language sovereignty, water sovereignty, land stewardship, and respect. Uplifting others by crafting projects that support both local communities and economy, the work inspires hope to continue. Lanzilotti is a 2023 Native Arts & Cultures Foundation (NACF) SHIFT – Transformative Change and Indigenous Arts Awardee.
