Monday, May 13, 2024, 7:00 pm

This will be the third and final concert of our 2023-2024 residency season with the New York New Music Ensemble. Please join us for a night of exciting and innovative compositions from four different composers.

PROGRAM:

TYSON GHOLSTON DAVIS - Grey Fireworks (2022)
ERIC MOE - Where do you see yourself in five years? (2022)
LOU HARRISON - Varied Trio (1987)
SHEREE CLEMENT - Fast Fish (2022) *World Premiere

NYNME’S final concert of the 2023-24 season centers around the world premiere of “Fast Fish” by Sheree Clement, a lyrical suite drawn from a monodrama about the losses caused by overfishing, damming and polluting rivers, with a focus on the Androscoggin River in Northern Maine. Eric Moe’s “Where do you see yourself in 5 years?” takes its title from a classic job interview question, and ponders the increasing difficulty of answering such a question honestly. Tyson Davis’ kinetic “Grey Fireworks” and Lou Harrison’s luminous “Varied Trio” round out the program.
