The GC Composers' Alliance is an organization dedicated to supporting the work of doctoral candidates in Music Composition at the Graduate Center of the City University of New York (CUNY). Founded and maintained by composers in the program, the Composers' Alliance presents regular concerts of new works and invites collaborations with performers and ensembles both from within CUNY and from New York's various, vibrant new music communities. The goal of the organization is thus to build bridges between composers, performers and audiences, while highlighting the musical activities of Graduate Center composers.
On May 8th, 2013 the Contemporary Music Ensemble, directed by Whitney George will present Ives's Central Park in the Dark and Copland's Appalachian Spring, along with two world premieres by our composers in residence Harry Stafylakis and Austin Shadduck. For more information about our wonderful players, visit our CME Orchestra page.
There will be a pre-concert talk led by Prof. Stephen Blum in which the audience will hear a brief introduction to Ives's wonderful masterwork. Our two composers in residence will also introduce their works. We hope you can join us!
