The sketches of Dr. Alan Blum’s patients and the poetry he creates based on their histories have made Dr. Blum a popular speaker at Amherst College in previous class reunions. Composer Emory Waters has created a quasi-operatic piece using stories and sketches from Dr. Blum’s books Ladies in Waiting, Gentle Men, and Seeing Patients.
See and hear the piece performed live with musicians, narration and video images.
