Ms. Ackerman enjoys integrating elements of these movement modalities in her performance and choreography of Dr. Gallagher's art song. Ella also had the good fortune to work with Dr. Gallagher on pieces composed for her voice from his opera Six Blind Men and The Moon. She hails from Madison, NJ, and currently resides in Chatham, NJ.

Flutist Martha Cargo fresh from concertizing in China in the Beijing Modern Music Festival AND cellist Valerie Kuehne and violinist Natalia Barnatny Steinbach, who form the dynamic musical duo Naked Roots Conducive. To round out the matinee performance, Naked Roots Conducive will perform cutting edge works from the recently released album Sacred521.

Paul J. Gallagher, Composer & Artist

Paul J. Gallagher was a student of Morton Feldman and Lejaren Hiller. In 1980 Dr. Gallagher began working exclusively in just intonation using a unique compositional language, which he developed by applying relationships found in the overtone series to the realms of pitch, rhythm and formal design. Dr. Gallagher created a new musical syntax, which evolved into a more poetic and intuitive interpretation of those relationships. He received numerous grants to pursue his work, which was performed in new music festivals internationally.
