The Terris Theatre

This concert is the culmination of a week-long, in-person residency at I-Park’s artists’ retreat in East Haddam, Connecticut. In this intimate, collegial setting, the participants will share ideas, inspire one another and share meals together while they workshop and rehearse five new works for their world premieres. This is the fourth iteration of I-Park’s popular Composers + Musicians Collaborative Residency. This year’s ensemble-in-residence is <a href="https://hubnewmusic.org/" title="https://hubnewmusic.org/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Hub New Music</a>. Called “contemporary chamber trailblazers” by the Boston Globe, Hub New Music is a “prime mover of piping hot 21st century repertoire” (Washington Post). Founded in 2013, the Detroit-based ensemble has commissioned dozens of new works for its distinctive ensemble of flute, clarinet, violin, and cello. Hub’s “nimble quartet of winds and strings” (NPR) actively collaborates with today’s most celebrated composers on projects that traverse today’s rich musical landscape. Hub New Music is Michael Avitabile (flutes), Gleb Kanasevich (clarinets), Meg Rohrer (violin/viola), and Jesse Christeson (cello). Currently based in Detroit, the ensemble’s name is inspired by its founding city of Boston’s reputation as a hub of innovation.I-Park is proud to bring together the following composers and Hub New Music:<a href="https://ethansoledad.com/home" title="https://ethansoledad.com/home" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Ethan Gonzalez Soledad</a>, Florida<a href="https://giordano-bruno-do-nascimento.com/" title="https://giordano-bruno-do-nascimento.com/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Giordano Bruno do Nascimento</a>, Germany<a href="https://www.celka.net/" title="https://www.celka.net/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Celka Ojakangas</a>, Los Angeles<a href="https://danielsabzghabaei.com/" title="https://danielsabzghabaei.com/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Daniel Sabzghabaei</a>, New York<a href="https://www.danielwohlmusic.com/" title="https://www.danielwohlmusic.com/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Daniel Wohl</a>, Los Angeles

This onsite residency is a unique opportunity for composers and musicians to engage in a respectful, creative dialogue. The compositions will be transformed in subtle, and sometimes dramatic, ways. The amount of rehearsal time invested in these performances will be readily apparent in the concert hall! The concert will start at 4:30 at The Terris Theatre, followed by a light reception. Do book an after-concert dinner reservation in beautiful downtown Chester!Questions can be directed to events@i-park.org or 860-873-2468.
