ABOUT THE CONCERT
Hear the twenty splendid “next generation thinkers” (NPR) of this formidably gifted ensemble in works ideally calibrated to show off their “equal parts exuberance, nonchalance, and virtuosity” (Financial Times of London). The evening includes a new Violin Concerto by Oscar Bettison; the energetic 5-movement piano concerto of György Ligeti, a major work by a modern master; and The Intention, a result of a collaboration between Alarm Will Sound and King Britt, Philadelphia-based producer/DJ.
