Look for further information soon about next season's World Premiere!

Memories of a Birch Tree
Harmony in Gold
The process of reviewing materials from over 250+ composers from
throughout the world was inspiring and humbling. There is much creativity,
talent and curiosity among the composers of today. We are thrilled to
share these works of art with our listeners!
