Week 1:
Gavin Bryars in residence with Composing and Singing Fellows, July 16-23
This week features world-renowned British composer Gavin Bryars in an immersive program that has already proved to be both popular and enormously successful. Twelve Singing Fellows will join twelve members of The Crossing to explore contemporary music for choirs and the new works written for the Initiative by Five Composing Fellows, who will study with Gavin and workshop their works with The Crossing and Donald Nally. It all leads to a performance with the premieres of those works, music of Gavin, and additional recent works.
