About The Programme
Through its concert series, New Works Calgary supports the creation and performance of contemporary concert music and brings together a confluence of creative energies from composers, musicians, and adventurous listeners. The matinee will include music from new Co-Artistic Directors of New Works Calgary, composers Rebecca Bruton and Lesley Hinger. As experimental art music sound-makers, Bruton embraces a surrealistic folk music influence, and Hinger leans toward transformational forms and processes in sound and gesture, while they share a love for the delicate and the simple.
Also featured are the incredible talents of Lorna Tsai, John Lowry, Kathleen De Caen, Jesse Morrison, and Rebecca Bruton on voice and guitar.
