After a powerful first season exploring a wide range of issues facing women and girls around the globe in March 2017, cellist Amanda Gookin returns for an all–new season featuring all–new works. As a 2018-2019 National Sawdust Project-in-Residence, the Forward Music Project 2.0, in this skin, will focus on the first-person perspectives of women. Gookin is commissioning six composers to write new works for solo cello highlighting issues of sex positivity, trans rights, pleasure and pain, gender nonconformity, fashion and dignity, hysteria, BDSM, and more.

And you are not alone. Bright Shiny Things
