Contemporary chamber music from around the world, including World Premieres by Nicolas Tzortzis and Jen Wang
Contemporary chamber ensemble Wild Rumpus presents new music from around the world, including world premieres of music by Nicolas Tzortzis and Jen Wang. Tzortzis' vivid, theatrical Incompatibles VI demands that a harpist portray both sides of a contentious relationship in speech and movement, with support from bass clarinet, violin, and ‘cello. Wang's forthcoming piece explores myths of transformation, drawing on a diverse palette of toy and children's instruments. Founded in 2011, Wild Rumpus is a contemporary chamber ensemble dedicated to adventurous new music, with a particular interest in commissioning and collaborating with young/emerging composers. Each year, the ensemble offers commissioned composers the opportunity to work closely with its members through one-on-one meetings and ensemble reading sessions, with the belief that collaboration encourages experimentation, creative growth, and exciting music. To learn more about the ensemble, including upcoming concerts and the annual open calls for scores, please visit wildrumpusmusic.org
