American Composers Orchestra: The New Virtuoso: For Art’s Sake at Carnegie Hall at Zankel Hall, Carnegie Hall

Witness a groundbreaking concert of new works, new instruments, and more, performed by one of the most prolific new-music presenters in Carnegie Hall history. The American Composers Orchestra is an astonishingly versatile ensemble, and this program invites five visionary composers to explore the vast possibilities they represent. Discover the musical inspiration each composer has found—or newly expressed—in such wide-ranging sources as electronically collected dream data; sonically reactive, moving sculptures; graphic music scoring; art history; gestural conduction; and the creation of new, culturally informed instruments.
