What does it mean to belong? Nearly 200 young Mainers — representing 22 countries and 29 languages — share their lived experience, and their words become song. You'll hear homesickness and hope in the same breath, courage borrowed from a fourth grader, truths too plain for adults to say out loud. Created by conductor Dr. Emily Isaacson and composer Judd Greenstein, and featuring Classical Uprising’s symphonic Chorus, Oratorio Chorale, Growing Up Maine is a musical portrait of our state, told by the children who are transforming it.
