Wet Ink Ensemble Reveals 2026-2027 Season Opening Concert

New York City-based new music collective Wet Ink Ensemble has announced the opening of its 28th season of adventurous music with a concert of premieres for small ensemble and electronics on Sunday, September 27th, 2026, 7:30 p.m. at the Zürcher Gallery.

The premieres include compositions by Wet Ink members Modney (violin/composition, 2026 Guggenheim Fellow), Alex Mincek (saxophone/composition, 2012 Guggenheim Fellow), Mariel Roberts Musa (cello/composition), and Sam Pluta (electronics/composition, 2018 Guggenheim Fellow). The compositions are the product of Wet Ink's collaborative 'band' working methodology, by which pieces go through multiple stages of performance and documentation over the course of a long-term creative process that is tailored to the unique skills of Wet Ink musicians.

Wet Ink violinist and co-director Modney said, 'This concert showcases the first step of Wet Ink's collaborative work-process, featuring new music that will be developed into larger-scale compositions in future seasons. We are proud to partner with Zürcher Gallery to offer our audience fresh sounds in an inviting space.'

Alex Mincek: New Work [2026]*
Mariel Roberts Musa: New Work [2026]*
