Performing Arts Houston presents the world premiere of my work for string sextet and choreography, Desert Shelter. The work is part of their New/Now Commissioning program. From their website:

Hernández’s commissioned work, Desert Shelter is an interdisciplinary exploration and highlighting of the experience of migrants crossing the U.S.-Mexico border via the Sonoran Desert pass, told through music and dance. The arduous journey of migrants is physicalized through J.E.’s composition, scored for a string sextet, and a collaboration with The Ponce Project and NobleMotion Dance.
