  • Wednesday, September 27: Behind the UAW strike, now entering its second week, is something much larger than a dispute over pay or benefits, or how companies should spend ‘record profits.’ For the auto companies this is a fight for the future of the auto industry itself which is increasingly, and maybe inevitably, going electric.

APM Presents special of the week

My Journey, Yours: A Cantus Immigration Special

Air Window: October 1 – November 30, 2023

My Journey Yours, a program of works anchored by Elise Witt’s piece of the same name, explores the courage of those who leave their homes in search of a brighter future and how they adapt to their new homeland. This program honors the struggle, courage, and deep humanity of migration with music from around the world, as well as a newly-commissioned piece by Melissa Dunphy, one of today’s most compelling compositional voices.
