Steven Schick moderates a conversation with listeners and musicians at five informal events devoted to the understanding and appreciation of new music. Each time, the ensemble performs one piece from the upcoming concert program, and the composer is often present to discuss the work. Audience members consistently praise Contemporary Insights events as a unique opportunity to become familiar with a new piece before hearing it again in concert. Afterward, join us at a complimentary reception to meet the artists.

$10 general, $5 students/seniors.
Tickets available at the door or with a subscription.
No one turned away for lack of funds.
