Top Lehigh Valley musical performers from across genres signed on to create a diverse, honest, hopeful look at the future – through song. “This is an artistic response to this unique moment in history,” says Michael Duck, project director of the Lehigh Valley Song Project. “And we are choosing to respond by breaking down barriers, celebrating the ways we all help each other, and plainly stating that everybody deserves and needs freedom from disease, freedom from violence, and freedom from hatred.” The Lehigh Valley Song Project premiered this year as part of Touchstone Theatre's Festival UnBound.
