Jessica Rudman’s “starkly effective” (Opera News) music inspires empathy for social issues through stories of myth, magic, and the modern world. Described as a “new music ninja” (Hartford Advocate), she blends lyrical melodies and dramatic narrative structures with sensual harmony and vibrant color to draw the audience into the world she has created. She believes that the ability to reach one’s audience is of extreme importance in our current social, economic, and political environment.
