Mark your calendar for November 11, and get ready to experience Creative Lab-a special concert in celebration of a new wave of California composers that is part of the statewide California Festival: A Celebration of New Music.
Our program features a brand-new composition for solo piano by Samuel Carl Adams, which will be performed by the brilliant pianist Conor Hanick. Conor is well-remembered for his outstanding performances as part of the American Modern Opera Company at the 2022 Ojai Festival. Additionally, we present a dynamic trio for violin, clarinet, and vibes composed by Dylan Mattingly, whose work was prominently featured at the 2021 Ojai Festival.
MA Tiesenga's piece, titled "Ganymedes," combines the ethereal sounds of an electronic hurdy-gurdy with an amplified string quartet. Reena Esmail's composition, "Ragamala," adds the mesmerizing tones of Hindustani vocals to a string quartet, invoking the tradition of using the raga as a point of departure for elaboration and reflection.
