New Music Ensemble

In its second performance of the year, the UChicago New Music Ensemble presents a program of new and canonical works for the unique instrumentation of the pierrot ensemble. The program centers selections from Arnold Schoenberg's seminal Pierrot Lunaire with Anne-Monique Pace as soloist, and also features contemporary works by University of Chicago faculty and graduate students. The program closes with a performance of Brittany J. Green's graphic score Intersections.
