Monday Night Creative Music Series: Chamber Cartel plus Jordan Benator

From the venue:

Chamber Cartel is proud to present the world premieres of three newly commissioned works! Listen by Nick Demos is a multi-movement quasi-jazz quartet (Saxophone, Upright Bass, Marimba, and Percussion) that serves as a bit of a warning. Throughout recorded history, humanity has watched helplessly as the darker nature of our souls unravel the nobility of our civilization. One by one, great empires have arisen and flourished over the many centuries only to ultimately succumb to the worst versions of ourselves. Larvae by Jordan Benator is an open instrumentation, variable length work that explores the gestation of an idea over the course of the piece. Machine City Z by Christopher Adler is scored for Alto Flute, Viola, Piano (with preparations), and Percussion. This three movement work is filled with rhythmic activity, hocketing, interlocking rhythms, and engaging textures.
