For twenty-five years, Alarm Will Sound has pushed at the edges of what a chamber orchestra can be: curious, fearless, and always in motion. This anniversary concert is both a celebration and a snapshot: music that has shaped the ensemble’s identity, works that mark turning points in our history, and sounds that point toward what’s next.

The program reflects the ensemble’s long-standing commitment to living composers, deep collaboration, and stylistic range, where precision meets risk, and structure meets play. Familiar voices return alongside newer ones, tracing a through-line from our earliest projects to the questions we’re asking now.

This is not a retrospective in amber. It’s a living portrait of an ensemble still evolving, honoring the past, fully present in the moment, and leaning into the future with curiosity and conviction.
