Enigma is a work for string quartet and video art, commissioned by Spektral Quartet and Washington Performing Arts. It is available with an art film formatted for a flat screen for concert hall programs, and as a shorter, special presentation for 360-degree dome theater. Click for more information on the piece, and for information on presentations in planetariums and dome theater spaces. This work requires light amplification of the string quartet and will require a sound engineer. Please confirm technical specs with quartet.

Concert-length work for string quartet, flute, and voice, by Nathalie Joachim.

Concert-length quintet for saxophone and strings, by Miguel Zenón.

A multi-hour event in which fertile minds and vanguard creatives offer the audience a behind-the-curtain glimpse into their processes and craft…while feasting and drinking concoctions from local, forward-thinking culinary and mixology artists.

Suitable for non-traditional spaces such as art galleries, black box theatres, and warehouse spaces.

Commissioned by Chamber Music America for Spektral Quartet, Tonia Ko’s Plain, Air captures the unique sound world of the Lake Michigan lakeshore and transforms it into
something both vast and intimate. Employing custom-built and -programmed speakers, Ko surrounds the audience with both field recordings from the lakefront and intricately processed sounds that mimic the surroundings – whether that audience is trekking up a nature path as it did at the world premiere, or seated comfortably in a concert hall.
