Stephen Kennedy Murphy’s modern adaptation of Franz Schubert’s The Millers Daughter is a one-hour series of video vignettes that reimagine the classic musical story through the lens of global warming and climate disasters. The story follows a steel worker's pursuit of his boss' "green-movement" daughter against the backdrop of the mill towns of Pennsylvania.
The Steel Miller's Daughter features lyrics and vocals by Mr. Murphy, with Natalie Tyson-Multhaup in the title role. An introduction will be given by Teresa Ghilarducci, Director of the Schwartz Center for Economic Policy Analysis (SCEPA), Willi Semmler, Director of SCEPA's Economics of Climate Change project, and Stefania de Kenessey, a former New School faculty member and renowned composer.
Following the performance, Stefania de Kenessey will lead a discussion with an interdisciplinary panel of artists and academics including Willi Semmler, Marie-Claire Giraud, Dimitri Nikulin, and Natalie Tyson-Multhaup.
