  • February 4 at 3 p.m.
  • Razzo Hall, Traina Center for the Arts
  • Free an open to all

Hub New Music, Boston-based chamber music organization actively performing and commissioning the latest generation of composers, will perform a program that is special for its inclusion of works by two composers at Clark: Sundar Subramanian, Professor of Music in Composition and Technology, and Xue Jiang, the Music Program’s 2017-18 Visiting Artist.

Hub New Music is a mixed quartet of “young intrepids” (WQXR, New York) exploring a richly diverse palette of 21st-century sounds. With a unique instrumentation of flute, clarinet, violin, and cello, Hub has been praised for “handling tricky ensemble passages with ease” (New Music Box) in performances that are “elegant and exacting” (Boston Globe) and inspire a  “refreshing sense of pure joy.” (New Classic LA). Projects for the 2017/18 season include a collaboration with the Silk Road Ensemble’s Kojiro Umezaki (shakuhachi) & the Asia/America New Music Initiative, Soul House — a new program exploring concepts of memory and reflection with a new work by Robert Honstein, a chamber-pop song cycle with composer/harpist Audrey Harrer, and a new quartet by Rome-prize winning composer Andrew Rindfleisch.
