Fundraiser for CH4IR
An evening of putting old and new into an uncomfortable dialogue. This collaboration between the AMC and the Cleveland Uncommon Sound Project was a spatialized presentation of chamber music works for the purpose of raising the audience’s consciousness of historical strife expressed through contemporary art. All proceeds from this show went to Cleveland Heights For Immigrant Rights, a grassroots organization in Cleveland.

about the program
This program put Messaien’s notion of the “end of time” into uncomfortable dialogue with living composers. These composers all write deeply intimate and personal works
