Physics for Listeners: a Composers' Concert
Homeroom is excited to debut a new concert of commissioned music composed by some of Chicago’s best and most exciting musicians and composers. The idea behind the concert is to bring together composers from across Chicago’s jazz/improv and contemporary classical scenes to write for a single ensemble. It is an opportunity for audiences to hear new work by a broad range of composers. The concert not only pays composers to write a new piece, but also introduces them to other composers working in Chicago. Homeroom believes in the importance of supporting Chicago composers who write new and innovative music.
The composers include The composers include Matthew Dotson: guitar; Tim Daisy: drums and percussion; Jason Raynovich: cello; Katherine Young: bassoon; Tobin Summerfield: bass and guitar; and Dan Mohr: piano & voice.
