Present Music: "In the New Chamber"

In the New Chamber

celebrating the women of today

composing the best in new music .

We have always performed music composed by women.

While the rest of the classical music world strains to hear them (as this recent article, and this recent report explain,) Present Music is once again calling attention to women and non-binary composers who are creating extraordinary new music that is rarely being performed elsewhere.

Present Music’s “In the New Chamber” concert features new (really new!) chamber music curated by Present Music ensemble member Eric Segnitz and performed in the new (really new!) Jan Serr Studio. The studio’s two-story window overlooking the busy streets of the East Side will serve as the backdrop to the 21^st century, technology-rich program on February 21^st and 22^nd. This enjoyable and entertaining program will delight you with over a dozen works new to Milwaukee, written by composers from the Icelandic cool to the heat of the Australian outback!
