Hybrid concert: Free in-person attendance at the Jewel Box Recital Hall in San Francisco Conservatory of Music (RSVP recommended) OR online on YouTube (RSVP requested)
Space is, as the saying goes, the final frontier. For E4TT's commissions concert in 2022, the group will turn to both outer and terrestrial space: whether considering outer space--with explorations and discoveries from the Mars rover, Perseverance--inner biological space with COVID and CRISPR DNA research, or the unfathomable depths of the earth's oceans, recent history has shown us that we have much to discover and unravel in order to ensure the survival of our planet and our species. These mysteries are the inspiration for E4TT's 2022 commissions concert, performed in collaboration with the San Francisco Conservatory of Music's Technical and Applied Composition Department:
