Works include songs by Jake Landau, Sato Matsui, Shawn Chang, Ivn Enrique Rodrguez, David Clay Mettens, Emily Cooley, Tariq al-Sabir, Curtis Stewart, and Molly Joyce.Co-curator Feldmann says about the 9 UNDER 34 program, In building this program, I hoped to present composers from a wide array of backgrounds and demographics that were writing songs about what mattered to them. The final result has had several themes emerge that, while not unique to our generation, are absolutely core conversations of today: Identity, the shifting social and environmental landscape, and our ability to communicate and connect within these new landscapes. The songs feature texts ranging from 19th century Scotland, to the lesser known words of Francis Scott Key, to nonverbal individuals with autism in Chicago, to personal reflections.Works by composers born after NYFOSs first program:JAKE LANDAU: Marys Song from Scotch LyricsSATO MATSUI: Fushigi uta from Songs of CuriositySHAWN CHANG: Green and Yellow from Portraits of Unrelated Colors IVN ENRIQUE RODRGUEZ: Alabaster ThreadDAVID CLAY METTENS: 2 songs from The sustaining airEMILY COOLEY: Beautiful Small Things TARIQ AL-SABIR: The Sixth Extinction CURTIS STEWART: Do You See the Flag?MOLLY JOYCE: Redesign Our Time Performers:Gregory Feldmann, baritone and co-curatorErin Wagner, mezzo-soprano and 2021 Naumberg Award winnerNathaniel LaNasa, pianoShawn Chang, pianoThapelo Masita, celloAttendees at Kaufman Music Center are currently required to wear masks and provide proof of vaccination.
