While in residence, Charlie will compose and record a minimum of six songs available for LSU School of Veterinary Medicine’s use and released by Destiny Records. Songs will be inspired by Charlie's experience in residence at LSU Vet Med including within the Veterinary Teaching Hospital and Stephenson Pet Clinic.
Charlie will interact with the LSU Vet Med community and draw creative inspiration from encounters that make up the day-to-day work of LSU Vet Med. These experiences will influence the music he writes. He will collaborate with members of the LSU A Capella Choir on musical compositions and performances.
"We are very excited to join forces with our colleagues in the College of Music and Dramatic Arts to showcase facets of LSU Vet Med's missions to teach, heal, discover, and protect for the greater Baton Rouge community. All are welcome to our free concert, and we especially look forward to seeing our wonderful clients, our referring veterinarians, and their clients, as well," said Sarr, who manages the Artist-in-Residence Program.
