Like Octavia Butler’s Afro-futurist science fiction, which inspired the piece, this experimental septet performance can seduce, challenge, and unnerve in the span of a few measures.
The first collaboration between jazz flutist and composer Nicole Mitchell and performer, composer, and vocalist Lisa E. Harris, EarthSeed was commissioned by the Art Institute of Chicago and recorded live there in 2017.
