At the heart of modern chamber musical exploration is the discovery and creation of new music. Join Amy Yang, dean of the storied Curtis Institute in Philadelphia, alongside University of Georgia faculty and student performers as they explore newly created, multidisciplinary works inspired by visual art, poetry and the environment in this free concert presented with Chamber Music Athens and the Hugh Hodgson School of Music. The concert will feature new music by living composers. Three of these compositions are receiving their world premieres, along with one Georgia premiere. Brief panel discussions illuminating the pieces will precede the performances.

Featured UGA Faculty: Liza Stepanova, piano, and Maggie Snyder, violin, Hugh Hodgson School of Music; and George Contini, actor, department of theatre and film; and David Tilson, UGA Warnell School of Forestry and Natural Resources. Also featuring UGA student Jacob Skiles, piano.
