Laurie Anderson is back with an album in tribute to Amelia Earhart, the famous American aviator who was the first woman to cross the Atlantic in 1928. Available on August 30, 2024, the artist's tenth studio album is performed with the Czech orchestra Filharmonie Brno, under the direction of Dennis Russell Davies, and tells the story of the aviator's final tragic flight!Why choose Amelia Earhart? :" She was very tough. She decided that if she finished her flight around the world, she was going to set up a situation so that girls could participate in workshop classes. Women are still stigmatized in the field of technology, except in the field of coding. How many women do you see doing other technological things? Or again, how many women are there in government? I just thought we would be much further along now.Things are going backwards, like the right to abortion. What time is it? I thought we were doing this in the 70s! We did it; I was there. I remember our feeling of accomplishment. We never thought it would start to go backwards like this. We never imagined that. The world is full of things you can't imagine. But here we are. "
