The Grossman Ensemble returns for its third collaboration under the esteemed direction of conductor Tim Weiss, presenting a series of world premieres that highlight the forefront of contemporary classical music. This performance features compositions by a distinguished group of composers, each bringing a unique voice to the ensemble's repertoire. Christopher Stark, whose music has been praised by The New York Times for its fetching and colorful qualities, joins the lineup alongside Elizabeth Ogonek, a former CSO Mead Composer-in-Residence known for her innovative contributions to the field. Paul Novak, a 2023 Barlow Commission recipient, offers his spellbinding compositions, as described by The Washington Post. Additionally, the program includes works by George Lewis, a formidable figure in modern music recognized by The New Yorker for his significant impact on the genre. This event promises an immersive experience into the evolving landscape of contemporary classical music, followed by an opportunity to engage with the artists at an after-party. Presented by the Chicago Center for Contemporary Composition, the evening showcases the dynamic and diverse talents shaping today's musical world.
