Few artists creating music today embody the passion and fire of Beethoven quite like America’s greatest living woman composer, the incomparable Joan Tower. From our World Premiere of her dynamic To Sing or Dance for Violin and Percussion—featuring Artistic Director Soovin Kim and the exhilarating Sandbox Percussion—to Beethoven’s passionate “Kreutzer” Sonata, this concert will blaze.
CMNW Co-Commission • World Premiere
Joan Tower’s To Sing or Dance was co-commissioned by Chamber Music Northwest with the generous support of the CMNW Commissioning Club, the Great Lakes Chamber Music Festival, and Emerald City Music.
This concert is sponsored by Powell’s Books.
