Imagination Sessions: Volume 6

Contemporaneousis an ensemble of 25 musicians whose mission is to bring to life the most transformative music by living composers through performances, commissions, recordings, and educational programs. Described as"exact and detailed, but also lively and openly dancing"(The New York Times) and"leading new music towards its better self"(I Care If You Listen), Contemporaneous particularly champions the creation of large-scale works and “dream projects,” which composers might not otherwise have opportunities to realize due to scale.

Contemporaneous

Welcome to the sixth Contemporaneous Imagination Session!

Imagination Sessions is a new online community initiative from Contemporaneous. Presented over Zoom in a participatory community format and moderated by Contemporaneous, every Imagination Session brings on incredible guests from disparate walks of life that foreground, in one way or another, the imagination of the future — from composers to theater directors to politicians. Taking place on the first Friday of every month, each Imagination Session is unique and features a different topic and group of presenters. Every session offers you the chance to be a part of the conversation, ask questions, or just listen and be part of the community. Through this series of discussions, presentations, and performances, the Imagination Sessions build a vast and diverse fabric of perspectives towards a grand exploration of imagination and creative life in the world of today and tomorrow.The sixth Imagination Session on July 2nd at 7:00pm EST will continue the series with a discussion with some of the composers and arrangers behind the music for our upcoming concert, <a href="https://www.eventbrite.com/e/160216811797">After the Storm</a>!
