Human Rights In Song

This work combines spoken word, poetry, world music, and drama to create a unique presentation of the history of human rights. Each "chapter" of the story is inspired by an article from the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Traditional world music from many traditions has been mixed by DJ Bulut, set with lyrics written and voiced by Jabez L. Van Cleef. This is a work in progress which will ultimately consist of 21 parts and span approximately two hours, and will be presented as a multimedia event with dance and chorus. These materials are also available at nominal cost in book, ebook, or CD format: contact jabez.vancleef@verizon.net
