Games and Revolutions explores the music and inspirations of two incredibly creative composers with Bay Area ties: Danny Clay and Gabriella Smith. Meet the composers and discover some of their many inspirations, including coral reefs, children’s games, and Haydn.
The works highlighted on this program playfully explore new perspectives on music-making and invite the audience to join in (sometimes literally!). Both composers will be present at the performance.
