Legend of the Voice (formerly entitled Legend of the Word)

A Mythic Musical

 

Music and Orchestrations by James Stewart

Book and Lyrics by Isaac Klein

Developed with Matt Cowart and Vanessa Walters

 

Legend of the Voice is a hero’s journey through a world in which sound has limitless power to do anything imaginable. The most powerful sound that exists the human voice, but the voice’s power has been squandered and forgotten. Longing for more, a hero embarks on an epic quest through different sonic realms to rediscover the ultimate power of their own voice.
