Featuring the Mosaic Commissioning Project and music by Augusta Read Thomas, Kevin Arthur Jr, Tom Whitman, and Michael Hersch.
Mosaic Commissioning Project
We kick off our season with a groundbreaking project inspired by and built upon Augusta Read Thomas’s radiant and agile work Acrobats, written to commemorate Linda Reichert in 2019. An incipit from Acrobats serves as the inspiration for the first of our collaborative commissioned compositions, created from a mosaic of different composers’ contributions. Featuring contributions by Kyle Bartlett, Erin Busch, Ke-Chia Chen, Andrea Clearfield, Jay Fluellen, Heidi Jacob, Evan Kassof, Louis Karchin, Robert Maggio, Eric Moe, Jeffrey Mumford, Cecelia Olszewski, Rene Orth, Paul Schuette, Ari Sussman, and Maurice Wright. Each composer contributed musical tesserae to create a compilation composition that celebrates the legacy of Network for New Music.
