"For the past 30 years, Composers Concordance has been a booster for local composers, through both its concerts across the city and a record label." -The Wall Street Journal. "Enterprising new music organization" -The New York Times.
Staying in rotation for thirty years in NYC is a rare feat. In the case of a new music presenting organization, it requires not only diligence and cognizance of achievements of the past, but also an ethic of keeping one's ear to the ground for emerging stylistic and technological developments, as well as talented new composers on the scene.
On September 27th at 7pm at Gallery MC, Composers Concordance presents its 30th Anniversary Season Opener and Fundraiser, with violinist Lara St. John, vocalist Loire Cotler, flutist Valerie Coleman, clarinetist Michiyo Suzuki, pianists Dimitri Dover and Eduard Laurel, and double bassist Troy Rinker, performing music of Gloria Coates, Valerie Coleman, Dan Cooper, Daniel Palkowski, Milica Paranosic, Gene Pritsker, Dave Soldier, and Randy Woolf, among others. The event will be augmented by games, speeches, food, drinks, and a performance by the prog-rock trio Erbium, with guest guitarist Peter Fabrizio. Directors and newly-appointed board members will outline the 'Anniversaires' season ahead, chock-full of commemorative concerts, established and emerging composers, aesthetic approaches, alternative venues, and related disciplines.
Composers Concordance strives to present contemporary music in innovative ways, with an emphasis on thematic programming. Gene Pritsker, Dan Cooper, and Milica Paranosic co-curate the programs, and lead CCE, the ensemble-in-residence at William Paterson University. Venues in recent seasons have included Bohemian National Hall, Chelsea Art Museum, Cutting Room, Dimenna Center, Drom NYC, Gallery MC, LPR, Miller Theater, the Museum of Natural History, and Weill Recital Hall, among many others. Composers Concordance was founded in 1984 by Joseph Pehrson and Patrick Hardish, advised by Otto Luening. It has also created a new record label, Composers Concordance Records, with distribution by Naxos. Composers Concordance's overriding vision is to see contemporary music, composers, and new works as a rightful and respected part of society. Good music, performed and recorded well, pushing the boundaries of sound and composition.

SALASTINA MUSIC SOCIETY CELEBRATES
FIVE YEARS WITH FIVE YOUNG L.A. COMPOSERS
In this season premiere event, Salastina Music Society will feature the music of five composers local to the Los Angeles area. Between them, they have won multiple Grammy awards, written music for film and TV, hold professorships at prestigious universities, and have numerous important commissions to their credit. Each composer will be interviewed on-stage before his composition is performed.
The composers whose works are featured in this program are: Jeremy Cavaterra (Salastina Music Society Composer in Residence), Andrew Norman (Rome Prize recipient, Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra Composer in Residence, and assistant professor at the USC Thornton School of Music), Adam Schoenberg (UCLA faculty, Charles Ives and Morton Gould prize winner, Kansas City Symphony Composer in Residence), Christopher Tin (two-time Grammy winner), and Philip White (film and television composer, currently for Ray Donovan and Supernatural).
About Salastina Music Society:
Currently entering its fifth season, the Salastina Music Society is a non-profit organization dedicated to presenting world-class performances of chamber music. To date, dozens of Salastina performances have been broadcast nationally on American Public Media's Performance Today. With the goals of broad audience appeal and innovative programming, Founders/Artistic Directors Maia Jasper and Kevin Kumar purposefully design each concert to be slightly shorter than the average classical music concert. The "Masterpiece Discovery" sub-series, hosted by KUSC's Brian Lauritzen, offers audiences a "guided tour" through a pillar of the repertoire. Other hallmarks of the Society are: visual and aural variety in ensemble combinations and repertoire; “free applause zones”; thoughtfully chosen new music; tangible audience participation; and extra-musical enhancements to the concert experience.
