American Ledger No. 1 by Raven Chacon is a narrative score for performance, telling the creation story of the founding of the United States of America. In chronological descending order, moments of contact, enactment of laws, events of violence, the building of cities, and erasure of land and worldview are mediated through graphic notation, and realized by sustaining and percussive instruments, coins, axe and wood, a police whistle, and a match. This work will be performed in Jordan Hall on Tuesday, Nov 12th as a part of the CMA Department performance "I, Too, Sing America".
