Event Description
Inspired by the far corners of pop culture—analog synthesizers, glitchy technology and fashion designer Isabella Blow—these composers have their own idiosyncratic takes on tonality, minimalism and electronics. Receiving its American premiere, Irish composer Andrew Hamilton’s astonishing music for roger casement is a tribute to the late Irish revolutionary.
