World Premieres for Chamber Orchestra

Four Emerging Composers • Four New Works

Four emerging composers are given the task of creating a new composition under the guidance of Composer Mentor Augusta Read Thomas, “a prodigious talent… the most accessible ambassador of the new modernism” (The New Yorker) through OSL’s DeGaetano Composition Institute.

Join Orchestra of St. Luke’s for the result as we perform a concert of the composers’ new works under the baton of conductor Brad Lubman, a leading conductor of modern music known for his “strong, clear leadership” (The New York Times).
