New York Performance of ‘Momentum’

I’m really excited to be heading to New York tomorrow for the mise-en music festival 2014. This new festival will take place in Manhattan over the next few days and features the wonderful ensemble mise-en. They will be presenting a range of new music in collaboration with the Momenta Quartet, Ensemble Paramirabo, and more than 30 international composers, of which I am one! The works of these composers were selected from the festival’s call for scores, which yielded 862 submissions by 702 composers from 65 different countries. This will be my first time in New York. I can’t wait to work with the ensemble and spend some time in a city I’ve always wanted to go to!
