The program will also include classical guitarist and MU student Matt Jordan, playing a piece by Villa Lobos an original composition by Laura DuBois, sung by MU alumnus Dana Ferrara, and MU students Margaret Lymberis and Mahalia Jackson.
At once entertaining and deeply insightful, Tie It Into My Hand is an unprecedented look at the life of an artist, told entirely through interviews with pre-eminent directors, filmmakers, visual artists, writers and performers, including Alan Cumming, Barbara Hammer, and Harold Bloom, among many others. The filmmaker sets his interactions with the artists in the context of a fake violin lesson while using his personal struggle to play the violin despite a chronic hand injury as the catalyst for dialogue.
