Attacca! Music Director David Milnes and the ensemble spring into action premiering music from three leading composers of the moment — including a much anticipated new work from Philippe Leroux. Edmund Campion engages six percussionists in kinetic esprit de corps. Italian electric guitarist Andrea Menafra and the ensemble conjure Fausto Romitelli’s psychedelic and rock-infused Lesson. Flutist Tod Brody and pianist Julie Steinberg are featured performers.
