Have you heard of the Chapman stick? It’s a relatively new, guitar-like musical instrument, and you won’t often see one out in the wild - unless you see Live Arts Boston grantee Francisco Rafart play. He’s mastered the instrument and is self-taught. Francisco sat down with Dunamis' J. Cottle for the second episode of Dexter’s L.A.B. to discuss his decision to pick up the Chapman stick, learning as a creative process, his approach to composing/creating and more.
