The Most Eclectic Contemporary Music Festival of the Season
Transversing genres, locales and aesthetic modes throughout NYC and beyondWith a 28-year history of leading-edge concert production in NYC, Composers Concordance presents The Composers Concordance Festival 2012. This will be a whirlwind of five innovative contemporary music concerts in ten days, including over 40 of NYC's most distinctive and accomplished composers. This festival spotlights the composer in different contexts, engaging the audience and performer in the creative process, and contending with the dizzying multiplicity of styles within today's music scene. All the while, Composers Concordance puts a premium on distinguishability, that factor by which we remember and denote individual identity - and it's that aspect, the distinction and breadth of the composer's message, on which we'll chiefly focus.
