BRATTLEBORO-Juventas New Music Ensemble will perform All We Are Saturday, Sept. 26, at 7 p.m. at the Brattleboro Music Center (BMC), 72 Blanche Moyse Way. The concert will include the world premiere of Wherever You Think There Is Nothing by contemporary classical composer Oliver Caplan.
“This concert spans generations and continents, and asks what it means to endure, to hold multiple identities, and to cherish what is most fragile and fleeting,” organizers said in a news release.
Described as “meditations on family, identity, and perseverance” on the ensemble’s website (juventasmusic.org), All We Are includes Kian Ravaei’s “Unstoppable” for clarinet, violin, cello, and piano; Reena Esmail’s Piano Trio for violin, cello, and piano; and All We Are Given We Cannot Hold, a poem by Robert Fanning adapted by composer David Biedenbender for soprano, clarinet, and piano.
Juventas New Music Ensemble performs works by emerging composers, aiming to “reimagine classical music as a vibrant living art form” created by composers who “live in today’s world and respond to our time,” according to the news release.
Advance tickets are $20 at bmcvt.org or by contacting BMS at 802-257-4523 or info@bmcvt.org. Admission is $25 at the door.
