Discover how the music of Randy Newman reflects the stories and values of American society in this Webinar Wednesday session.
About the Event
From Randy Newman’s 1968 debut album through the 2017 Grammy-winning Dark Matter (and his many acclaimed film soundtracks), the award-winning musician has populated his music with characters who reflect the complexities and contradictions of late 20th- and early 21st-century America. Newman offers listeners unflinching portraits of outcasts, patriots, bigots, loners, lovers and losers, all struggling to understand the world even as its foundation seems to be shifting beneath them.
Speaker Gil Gigliotti is a professor of English and Latin at Central Connecticut State University and the host of “Frank, Gil, and Friends” on WFCS, 107.7 FM.
