The CCPA Contemporary Ensemble presents a bold evening of recent works that explore sound, texture, and atmosphere in strikingly original ways. From Tim Corpus’ shimmering A Light Divided and Kyong Mee Choi’s evocative Im Nebel, to Matt Mason’s visceral Downhill from Breathing, the program highlights diverse voices shaping today’s musical landscape. Clarice Assad’s Lemuria brings a driving energy with its unique scoring for cello choir and percussion, while Ben Zucker’s Grass Has Grown Into Your Cities offers a powerful reflection on environment and community. The program also features a movement from Jonathan Hannau’s Three Pieces for Orchestra, showcasing the imaginative artistry of a CCPA alumnus.
