E4TT celebrates the intersection between the visual arts—arts meant to be seen, rather than merely heard—and music in this third program in it's summertime listening series., "Seeing Is Hearing." Program #3 takes its cue from the various ways that E4TT has explored these, ranging from inspirations for programming and commissions (“The Guernica Project,” commemorating Pablo Picasso’s iconic painting inspired by the bombing of Guernica, Spain, in 1937, and “The Film Noir Project”), to music inspired or accompanied by still images (“The Film Noir Project,” with images by Corinne Whitaker and Aleksandra Vrebalov) or film (Charlie Chaplin and “The Man in the Vault” in “Dracula Rising: Emigres & Exiles in Hollywood” and “The Film Noir Project” with cinematography by Emma Kazaryan) to dance—artistic movement (in Kazaryan’s film and the Zazpiak Bat Dancers in the Guernica Project”).

“Ensemble for These (Summer) Times,” is E4TT’s summertime listening series of free biweekly, topical online concerts of relevant new music from the group’s performance archives. Each program will focus on a different theme, and starting with the second program, will be paired with an interview with a creative artist who has collaborated with E4TT. Links will be announced via the group’s newsletter and social media and will expire when the new program goes live. The final date planned for the summer series is August 25.
