Composer/percussionist Lukas Ligeti Showcases New Works
Gershwin Hotel, NYC
7 East 27th Street, NYC
United States
Tickets: $10 General, $5 Students
Just off a 3-month long tour in Europe and India, composer/percussionist Lukas Ligeti returns to his hometown of New York City with a trio of live performances ranging from avant-jazz collaborations to a curatorial concert series in Brooklyn. One of the most innovative composers and improvisers on the new music scene, Lukas neatly bridges the classical-modernist-world-music divide. He combines his post-minimalism compositional style with other facets of contemporary expressions such as noise and electronics as well as indigenous non-Western musical and cultural influences.
As part of the Contagious Sounds concert series curated by Vicky Chow, this concert features new works by Lukas for the rebirth of his band, Lukas Ligeti’s Notebook (formerly known as Kaleidoscope Point).
Leading on percussion, Lukas is joined by Dan Blake (sax) and Eyal Maoz (guitar). Wende K. Blass (guitar) and TBA (piano). Also slated to appear are special guests such as Cadillac Moon Ensemble, Tom Bergeron, Candy Chiu, and more…

Jennifer Goltz
Embrace the universal language of love with Milwaukee’s own cutting-edge new music ensemble -- Present Music. All aspects of love will be explored through music from bliss to heartache and everything in between.
The Love concert will feature a variety of contemporary composers whose music discovers love’s limitless possibilities. Present Music has commissioned Grammy-Award Winner Michael Daugherty, one of the most performed and recorded American composers today, to create a new work for voice and ensemble, entitled The Labyrinth of Love. This world premiere will take the audience on an unpredictable journey through the poetry and writings of women from ancient Greece’s Sappho, Victorian England's Elizabeth Barrett Browning to Hollywood's Elizabeth Taylor. Alongside a rich, musical soundscape created by Daugherty, soprano Jennifer Goltz, who possesses a "brilliant voice full of subtle allure and sprightly energy", will join Present Music for this exciting event.
Milwaukee’s own chanteuse extraordinaire, Robin Pluer, will join Present Music in a special performance featuring music from Edith Pilaf.
