New College’s New Music 2013-2014 Season Announced.
New Music New College will celebrate its 15th year with a five-concert series featuring artists who have resonated with past audiences, and with an expanded set of opportunities to meet and converse with the musicians.
“For our 15th anniversary season, we’ve chosen to deepen the conversation with artists who have made an especially strong impact here in recent years,” said Stephen Miles, director of New Music New College and provost of New College of Florida.
As in past years, there will be a free “artist conversation” on the Thursday before each performance. This year, New Music New College is adding a “pre-concert talk,” a 20-minute conversation with the artists that will explore the themes and context of the work.
The series opens Friday, Sept. 20, with the NOW Ensemble, the series continues Saturday, Nov. 16, with Francis Schwartz and Friends, Saturday, Jan. 18, performance of Ugly Beauties, Saturday, March 15, with the DIY Ensemble and concludes Saturday, April 19, with Miranda Cuckson and Christopher Burns performing Luigi Nona’s “La Iontananza nostalgica utopica futura”.
New Music New College also includes two events that are free and open to the public:
Sunday, April 27 – The Student Composers Concert, with the Sarasota Piano Quartet Thursday,
May 8 – Electronic Music Class Concert.
